2008년 2월 14일

TORONTO, February 15, 2008 - ENGINEERING.com [TSXV: EGN] and Creaform today announced a partnership that will give ENGINEERING.com distribution rights to Creaform’s line of Handyscan 3D laser scanners for the educational market in North America.  

Creaform’s line of Handyscan 3D scanners represents the first portable, accurate and low cost handheld laser scanners on the market.  These scanners help engineers improve their design and inspection capabilities through the manufacturing process, making them ideal for use in reverse engineering, inspection and analysis, and the creation of digital mock-ups.

“Engineering schools throughout North America have been looking for a way to acquire data from physical products to create 3D models”, said John Hayes, President of ENGINEERING.com.  “The Handyscan is the first product we’ve seen that can fit the needs and the budgets of engineering schools.”

On February 18, 2008, ENGINEERING.com will begin distribution of the Handyscan 3D scanners through its website at www.engineering.com and through its sales and support center. Creaform will be responsible for installation, training and post sales support.

”We are delighted that ENGINEERING.com will be representing our Handyscan line of scanners,” said Charles Mony, president of Creaform.  “Our new scanning module for CATIA V5 makes this partnership a particularly good fit, since ENGINEERING.com is the only North American education distributor for CATIA, one of the most important CAD products in the world”.

Creaform’s offer covers 3D scanning, reverse engineering, inspection, styling, design, analysis, digital manufacturing and medical applications needs, in a wide range of industries, such as automotive, aerospace, biomechanics, consumer products, education, heritage preservation & architecture,  and multimedia.
