Finding skilled engineers can be a challenge. But who’s responsible, how did this happen and is it reality or media hype? You could argue that part of the problem resides in the fact that engineers aren’t given the respect (or reflective pay) that doctors or bankers get. Without engineers, todays technological improvements would not have [...]
You might recall that we sponsor the Esslingen University Formula Student team, and have done so for the last couple of years by providing them with E³.series software, training and support for their students to use in the design of the team’s racing car. They’ve had a roller coaster year with the Stallardo ‘12, the [...]
If you’re in North America (Pennsylvania to be exact), and an E3.series user, this is guaranteed to catch your interest. If not, you might just be glad to hear that this is a story of a company doing well in a tough economic climate – and that’s always worth reading about! Recently I caught up [...]
Recently we sent Jason Brett, a contributing writer at CADdigest, a copy of our E3.series software. It’s time to let the software speak for itself… “If mechanical CAD packages are for designing the skeleton of a machine, then the E3.series software from Zuken is for designing its soul,” said Jason. I thought this was a [...]
This year we’re doing our annual conferences on a GRAND scale. Last year you might have been familiar with Z-DAC in North America, Innovation Fair in Japan, or Engineering Days in Europe. This year, we’ve brought them all together and centered on a consistent theme for all of our global conferences – Innovation. In 2012, [...]
The recent passing of Gene Marsh (founder of PADS Software and involved in the early days of Redac) got me to thinking about the early days of EDA. Before the ’80s many of the larger electronics companies, like Hewlett Packard, were developing their own CAD systems for electronic design. These were generally pretty clunky and [...]
