WHAT IS HSMWORKS FULL
Both of these companies also have full blown PLM offerings as well. In the case of Dassault Systems, it is Catia & SolidWorks while in the case of Siemens it is the NX & SolidEdge. Both Dassault Systems and Siemens have enterprise level product offerings as well as a mid-range product offerings in the MCAD space.Now why is Autodesk buying a company that makes a fully integrated plug-in for a competitor’s product? My thoughts on this are as follows:
The parallels here are way too many to not draw the same conclusions. After announcing a $99 price for their Alibre Design product in 2010, they ended up selling out to 3D Systems in 2011. I cannot but compare this with what happened with Alibre Inc. In my opinion, HSMWorks initiated this acquisition conversation because they were in financial trouble or the founders were just tired of not gaining any traction in the marketplace. Connect the dots and I am almost certain that this was a fire sale. It is a small company trying to keep the lights on. They gave away a whopping 1/3 of their entire portfolio.
WHAT IS HSMWORKS FREE
CAM industry insiders will remember the HSMWorks a year ago in SolidWorks world 2011, made a big splash and offered a free 2-1/2 axis program. But I would beg to differ on this opinion. But there are more important questions that need to be answered.įirst question that comes to my mind is why in the world are the HSMWorks founders selling out? The conventional wisdom seems to be that the founders of HSMWorks are cashing out after Autodesk came in with an offer they could not refuse. Wikipedia describes this as an abbreviation for “Anpartsselskab”, which means limited liability company in Danish. For those of you who might not know, HSMWorks is a company based in Denmark that develops a CAM product that runs inside SolidWorks. announced that it had acquired “certain assets of HSMWorks ApS”.
