NC Graphics
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arthur Flutter founded NC Graphics in Waterbeach, Cambridge, England in 1977 after completing a PhD in Computer Aided Design at the CADCentre. This work became the basis of Toolmaker, a product that has been sold by the company since this time.
In the mid-1980s the company collaborated with C&J Clark to write shoe design software until a dispute about the intellectual property rights over the product caused a falling out.
In 1993 the company formed a partnership with DEPO GmbH and began development of machining STRATEGIST, a graphical based system limited solely to generating 3-axis Cnc instructions. This product was resold by DEPO in Germany and sometimes the rest of the world under the brand name Depocam.
In late 2001 NC Graphics was approached by Vero International who realized that the software would serve well as a Geometric modeling kernel for Computer-aided manufacturing within their system. In June 2002 they took over the complete machining STRATEGIST product and development team leaving NC Graphics with rights to its own copy of the source code and the Depocam product.
