Como, Italy (PRWEB) May 27, 2009 — Unlike most AutoCAD compatible CAD software, progeCAD 2009 far exceeds simple DWG file compatibility with special features like Google Earth export, PDF conversion, Quick-Dimensioning (“QDIM”) and even an updated spell checker. Now German users enjoy the convenience of using progeCAD design commands in native German language.

AutoCAD LT users will see familiar with features like paper space layout “print area visualization” and support for DIESEL expressions along with full DWG file compatibility – but at a fraction of the cost. progeCAD also supports true ACIS 3D model editing, AutoLISP and SDS program extensions – features not supported by most versions of AutoCAD LT. progeCAD’s extensive DWG block collection library and manager has been extended with more CAD symbols. progeCAD’s new “Advanced Data Extraction” wizard guides users in easily sharing block information with applications like Microsoft Excel. Other enhancements include new “one-click” text editing, an interactive “purge” command window and one-click entity grouping.

progeCAD Professional 2009 German includes eTransmit , eSnap-from, Asiatic font, ECW, O2C, SVG XML file support and basic raster-to-vector conversion software. progeCAD’s “Express Tools” CAD design pack, easy-to-use attribute editing and “Find and Replace” text and attribute search make “progeCAD Professional – German version” a truly “professional” platform that is quite affordable – less than 300 Euros.

The German Translation of progeCAD demonstrates a significant effort in quality over similar German design software. Great care was taken to use technical terminology which German CAD users would be familiar with. An additional, full German help file will be released to all users later this year. Network NLM, USB mobile and corporate licensing options for the 2009 German version are available as well.

progeCAD is now used successfully by thousands of companies around the world like Honda, Q8, ABB, Holcim, Indus Motor and Schneider Electric in industries like building design and architecture, machine and mechanical design, furniture and appliances, industrial layout and production planning and more. “progeCAD 2009 – German version” helps German innovation to continue, but at a price more appropriate to the current economic climate.

progeCAD German CAD software translation was supervised by progeSOFT, located near beautiful Lake Como in Italy. progeCAD in German is available from numerous authorized progeCAD distributors around the world including progeSOFT (www.progesoft.com , www.progecad-deutschland.com) and CADDIT .

progeCAM 2008 CAD CAM CNC Software Released by CADDIT.net

Sydney Australia, March 25 2008 – CADDIT announced the world-wide release of their newest IntelliCAD integration project, progeCAM CNC 2008. progeCAM bundles two key long-standing packages: progeCAD 2008 Standard and Dolphin PartMaster CNC. Engineers move from CAD to CAM using a special IntelliCAD module from CADDIT that seamlessly combines the two powerful applications at one special price.

progeCAM is one complete software bundle for taking ideas from concept sketch to design, detailed drafting and final part CNC manufacturing. progeCAM seamlessly integrates two robust technologies, Dolphin PartMaster CNC and progeSOFT IntelliCAD. An integration module callable from within progeCAD’s design interface allows users to select geometry and then choose whether that geometry requires preprocessing within CAM space before finally post processing the G-Code from PartMaster CAM required for actually cutting your design.

progeCAM comes in two major versions with several additional options. progeCAM Basic is an affordable entry-level 2D mini milling package suitable for hobby CNC, table routers, woodworking and more. Serious manufacturers should try progeCAM Professional. progeCAM Professional offers four options: Mill, Lathe, Wire EDM or all three together. It offers maximum flexibility with 3D back plotting, toolpath macros, DNC functionality, custom post processors and other enhancements for machinists. All versions are stand alone solutions that do not require additional software. progeCAM Professional will only be available in Australia, New Zealand and surrounding region.

Many businesses require a low cost design solution that is fast, flexible and easy to use. progeCAM is ideal for wood working shops, metal and laser cutting for both domestic and industrial products. Some of these include furniture, OEM aftermarket automotive products, building maintenance and supply, electrical fittings, custom jig, test and fixture development and other custom manufacturing requirements.

Because progeCAM includes progeCAD, users also have complete AutoCAD® style drafting functionality and DWG 2008 compatibility with other modern CAD systems. This also allows users to take direct advantage of the millions of free downloadable AutoCAD® blocks for use in their CNC designs at a fraction of the normal cost. progeCAM couples as a documentation system with full ISO, DIN and ANSI drafting supporting XREFs and Microsoft OLE document embedding. progeCAM offers a free 30 day trial download on the progeCAM website.

All progeCAM users can choose additional options such as DNC Communications, Upgrades and support. progeCAM users truly enjoy the best of both worlds at minimal software cost: robust AutoCAD® DWG 2008 interface with industrial strength CNC software. progeCAM saves machinists’ time by seamlessly linking the CAD and CAM aspects into one. progeCAM is available worldwide from CADDIT.net ( http://www.caddit.net ) and their certified resellers.
