When asked why Pro Cad is making a major investment in additional expansion within the current highly competitive midrange CAD marketplace, Walt is quick to point out, "KeyCreator offers a distinctly refreshing alternative to the typical parametric, feature-based modelers that comprise most of the offerings in the market today".
"While we also offer what I like to call "Parametrics-on-the-fly," in addition, the user has the option to use powerful freeform modeling tools that greatly expand the available toolset and simplify the design process".
"Rigid parametric-only solutions inhibit creative product development and present real obstacles when working with imported data or in the creation of tooling that is used to manufacture newly designed products".
"In KeyCreator, the astute user can quickly and easily work with any model, whether it is native or imported from any other system".
"I firmly believe that this flexibility is the key to success in the increasingly competitive, fast-paced product development arena".
"We are strongly committed to educating the marketplace in the benefits of migrating from restrictive, parametric, feature-based modelers to the open environment provided by KeyCreator".
Walt Silva states, "I am pleased to welcome my longtime business colleague and friend, Rocky Pacelli, in this new business relationship".
"Pro Cad is committed to providing customers with the best, in-depth CAD support and the addition of the Pace-Tech group as a local KeyCreator centre in our western region provides customers there with even greater coverage than before".
