Press release date: October 22, 2007
Agreement provides US$1.1 Million in award-winning Kubotek 3D CAD/CAM software to largest Technical Professional Training Institution in Brazil
Marlborough, MA - October 22, 2007 - Kubotek® USA, creators of geometry-based CAD software, and its Brazilian partner RCTASK®, today announced a licensing and services agreement with SENAI - Sao Paulo. Kubotek is donating licenses of the latest version of its KeyCreator product featuring its new FaceLogic(TM) technology. RCTASK, a Kubotek Authorized Service Center, will equip SENAI mechanical design labs with KeyCreator NC and train SENAI instructors. The SENAI schools provided Kubotek software and RCTASK training under this agreement are SENAI units CFP 1.23, 1.15, 5.01, and 6.01.
"Brazilian manufacturers are looking for an easier way to design in 3D," said Antonio Pedro Lourenso, Operations Manager of RCTASK. "Currently, most companies in Brazil deploy only popular 2D packages to meet their design needs. KeyCreator offers rich solid modeling capabilities without the complex and costly history-based constraints that limit design and manufacturing flexibility. We believe that KeyCreator is an easy-to-use and easy-to-learn 3D modeling solution that will be adopted as the standard 3D CAD tool in Brazil."
"We are excited about beginning this relationship with SENIA-SP and look forward to providing long-term support." said Scott Sweeney, vice president at Kubotek USA. "RCTASK has established a strong reputation for providing quality CAD solutions and services across Brazil. Our companies will work closely together to ensure SENAI instructors and their students achieve success."
Sweeney continued, "Companies all over Brazil are adopting KeyCreator as their main CAD tool primarily because of its flexibility, ease of use, and superior price/performance. In addition, companies are adding licenses to augment their current CAD toolset. We believe that parametric software will soon be replaced by the new direct editing software. KeyCreator is on the leading edge of this wave as the inventor of 3D direct editing CAD software. With this software grant, SENAI - Sao Paulo will be able to prepare design and manufacturing professionals for the future."
