Delcam celebrates 15,000th customer; in Russia

Russia’s Rostvertol company, formally the Rostov Helicopter Plant, has become Delcam's 15,000th customer for its range of CADCAM software.

The sale was also significant as it was one of the largest orders won by Delcam’s network of offices in the country. It involves a contract for the PowerSHAPE CAD software and the PS-Moldmaker mould design system, as well as PowerMILL and PowerINSPECT. Further orders for PowerINSPECT, both for co-ordinate measuring machines and for on-machine verification, are expected, with additional opportunities for PowerSHAPE and PowerMILL predicted in the longer term. The Rostov Helicopter Plant was founded in 1939 and has subsequently become one of the world’s leading helicopter manufacturers. It is based in the city of Rostov.
