3D package adds extra dimension to PCB design
Zuken has released Cadstar 3D, a novel desktop solution for combined 3D validation of electrical and mechanical designs.
Novacad was launched as an independent venture by cofounders Robert Gianotti and Philippe Biran just last July, as a spinoff from Zuken in France.
Despite the challenges of being a startup company and having just nine months to generate winning sales levels for the complete financial year, Novacad stormed ahead with the highest Cadstar sales levels in Europe.
Cadstar is Zuken's Windows-based desktop PCB design solution.
It is designed for ease-of-use and easy integration into other design environments while preserving legacy data.
Novacad's vast experience and knowledge relating to the functionality of Cadstar in areas such as schematic capture, placement, routing, library creation and management, signal integrity, EMC analysis, and production of manufacturing data is the grounding for their success.
Philippe Biran, Managing Director, said: "Although revenue from big accounts has been decreasing, we have managed to capture the part of the market consisting of small and medium sized companies".
"The high retention rates, coupled with the introduction of a considerable number of new customers, have played a significant role in our achievement".
Jeroen Leinders, European, American and Asian West Cadstar Distribution Manager comments: "Keeping existing customers satisfied has been one of the core reasons for Novacad's accomplishment".
"Their commitment to providing quality support and training, has built up strong customer loyalty, which in turn has yielded great results".
"We are pleased to be working with such dedicated teams". Request free introductory details about products from Zuken ...
