CGTech, the developer of VERICUT software, is celebrating a 30-year milestone.

CGTech Ltd. managing director Tony Shrewsbury says that CGTech may have started 30 years ago, but continues to come out with new products while enhancing core capabilities.

CGTech began when CGTech president Jon Prun recognised a need to verify NC tool path programmes without wasting valuable CNC machining time on a prove-out part.

VERICUT products are developed in-house by a large team of CGTech software engineers and over the years enhancements have been added to support complex multi-axis kinematics, reduce machine tool cycle times, increase tool life, and simulate the additive capabilities of hybrid CNC machines.

“VERICUT development is driven by our customers’ needs, and we always encourage input from users and partners,” Shrewsbury says. “We host nearly 50 free VERICUT user group meetings worldwide each year to gather valuable customer feedback.”

Direct offices are located in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, China, Singapore, India, Brazil, and Korea.
