DeskArtes was the first company to offer efficient and robust surface triangulation, STL manipulation and repaid tools to the Rapid Prototyping industry. Partnering with DeskArtes enables NovaCast to utilize the DeskArtes experience for handling STL data to efficiently produce error free and optimized data for NovaFlow&Solid simulation software. NovaCast customers will also benefit from links to native and standard formats available in 3Data Expert, like IGES, CATIA, ProE, UGS and STEP, allowing them to generate prefect STL data from any CAD system for simulation purposes.

'STL data is essential with NovaFlow&Solid software, and with DeskArtes we can help our customers to solve any issues they may have when transferring CAD models for simulation,' comments Håkan Fransson, NovaFlow&Solid product manager, Novacast. 'NovaFlow&Solid customers can now spend their valuable time with mold design and analysis rather than data transfer between different systems, enabling them to produce parts faster and more accurately.'

'We are very pleased to start the co-operation with NovaCast,' says Ismo Mäkelä, DeskArtes' managing director, and continues 'STL format is nowadays a standard for data transfer to simulation softwares, and I am happy that also NovaCast customers can now benefit from DeskArtes experience in STL repair and manipulation, as is done by several other simulation software users already.'

DeskArtes 3Data Expert software is available for NovaCast customers immediately, either directly through NovaCast, Sweden, or via NovaCast distributors around the globe.
