Combining the strengths of Mastercam with Sandvik’s offering and know-how within machining is expected to be an important enabler in automating the customers’ end-to-end manufacturing processes. “CAM plays a vital role in the digital manufacturing process, enabling new and innovative solutions in automated design for manufacturing.”ĬNC Software has a strong market position in CAM, particularly for manufacturing SMEs, which supports Sandvik’s ambitions to develop solutions to automate the manufacturing value chain for SMEs – and deliver competitive point solutions for large OEMs. “An acquisition of CNC Software and the Mastercam portfolio, in combination with our existing offerings and extensive manufacturing capabilities, will make Sandvik a leader in the overall CAM market measured in installed base,” said Wilding. It’s an exciting time for manufacturing, and we look forward to moving the industry forward together!”įor Stefan Widing, President and CEO of Sandvik, the acquisition is in line with the company’s strategic focus to grow in the digital manufacturing space. “I am very passionate about manufacturing in Australia and pride myself in partnering with progressive manufacturing companies to achieve better outcomes. “Mastercam Software Australia is committed to support and training of all users,” said Williams. Greg Williams, Director of Gcode, stressed that for Mastercam users in Australia the customer experience will remain completely unchanged, with the same level of customer service and support that they have come to expect. Gcode has been supporting the Australian region as Mastercam’s reseller for nearly six years. The Mastercam brand and its reseller channel will remain intact. By acquiring CNC Software, Sandvik gains Mastercam, the most widely used Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) brand in the industry with an installed base of around 270,000 licenses/users, as well as a strong market reseller network and well-established partnerships with leading machine makers and tooling companies.
