Delcam will launch the latest version of its award-winning ArtCAM JewelSmith CADCAM software at the Spring Fair to be held at the NEC, Birmingham, from 3rd to 7th February, 2008.
This new release offers improved ease of use, faster and more robust operation, and better interoperability with other software. ArtCAM JewelSmith is already established as the main design and manufacturing software for the jewellery industry and the new features in this release seem certain to consolidate its leading position.
"The feedback from our customers was that ArtCAM JewelSmith already offered the tools they needed for faster and higher quality design and manufacture of jewellery,” claimed ArtCAM Development Manager Edward Powell. "While they felt that the key to the software's popularity was its ease of use, we were sure that we could provide further simplification. We have moved a long way towards making ArtCAM JewelSmith even easier to learn and use with the current release.”
The main change has been to the ArtCAM Project format that allows multiple components to be combined to create an intricate model. In earlier versions of the software, the models representing the individual components had to be kept as separate files. JewelSmith 2008 now allows multiple independent models, of differing size, resolution and materials, to be created within a single file.
In addition, a new Project Tree has been added to give an intuitive method of creating and manipulating the components within the overall design. This uses many of the standards and conventions of Windows Explorer to make learning and using the system straightforward and efficient. For example, components can be moved and copied between Projects simply by dragging with the mouse.
