Delcam’s PartMaker SwissCAM Selected by Citizen as a Global Solution and Preferred CAM system
08 Aug 2008
Ft. Washington, PA, London, England and Nagano, Japan – On July 25, 2008, CADCAM developer Delcam entered into a strategic partnership with world leading Swiss lathe builder Citizen Machinery to encourage the use of the company’s PartMaker SwissCAM software by Citizen customers. Delcam and Citizen Machinery have entered into a signed agreement to collaborate on both technical and marketing activities in support of Citizen’s customers world-wide. The agreement was signed at a signing ceremony held in the UK offices of Citizen Machinery.

As one of Citizen’s preferred CAM systems, PartMaker SwissCAM will be referred to the company’s customers and distributors world-wide as one of a few selected solutions for meeting the wide variety of Citizen and Citizen-customer machining needs. PartMaker SwissCAM will also be featured on Citizen’s machine-tool displays at trade shows and open houses around the world.

PartMaker SwissCAM has been in use by many of Citizen’s leading users for almost a decade, including such industry leaders as Smith and Nephew, Biomet, Medtronic, ITT and many others. PartMaker SwissCAM supports the full line of Citizen machines with robust, field proven and well supported post processors. PartMaker SwissCAM supports all currently available Citizen models including the various models in the A, B, C, K, L, M and R series range as well as older models no longer in production including the E and F series machines. Using the software’s Full Machine Simulation module, a Citizen user can simulate the machining process in 3D on any number of Citizen machines their computer desktop in “virtual reality” like environment before generating an accurate program for their Citizen machine. PartMaker also allows Citizen users to quickly switch a program from one Citizen machine to the next with just a few mouse clicks.

“With the global support platform provided by Delcam, we are comfortable in saying that Citizen’s own staff, customers and dealers can now enjoy truly global support of their programming needs with PartMaker SwissCAM, a comfort level that has lead to consummation of this agreement,” according to Geoff Bryant, Managing Director for Citizen Machinery in the UK.
“PartMaker SwissCAM has been dedicated to the productivity of Citizen users for the better part of decade,” says Hanan Fishman, the President of the PartMaker Inc. Division of Delcam. “The fact that Citizen is acknowledging this contribution by choosing to partner with PartMaker SwissCAM is very gratifying validation of our long standing commitment to the Citizen user community, a commitment we hope to deepen with this agreement.”
“Choosing the correct software is more important than ever for Citizen customers,” states Mr. Fishman. “The geometric complexity of Swiss parts is increasing, lot sizes are getting smaller and the capability and complexity of machine architectures is rising. This increased complexity makes it more difficult for companies to use manual methods to program their machines, while the shorter runs mean that the benefits of PartMaker software in reducing programming and set-up times are more important than ever.”
