We are committed to Continuous Improvement...


The FastCAM product was first shipped in 1976 and was originally developed because CAD systems were over complicated for workshop personnel. Even now, many current MIS solutions are complex, slow and inadequate, particularly for SHAPES.

FastCAM's unique integrated multiple postprocessors, NC verification and NC code nesting still set it apart from other CAM and CAD/CAM systems and the new generation of FastCAM software is still used by hundreds of users around the world.

Today the product line has been expanded to include dozens of trademarked products encompassing many industries and distribution points and FastCAM is used in many different environments.
