Vero Software is expanding its empire again with the acquisition of Surfcam assets from Surfware Inc – a US-based software specialist responsible for the development of Surfcam and TRUEMill technology.
Commenting on the acquisition, Richard Smith, CEO of Vero Software said: “Across the enlarged group, the complementary products address the worldwide need for efficient and innovative CAD/CAM/CAE technology. Surfcam is a robust, and well respected CAD/CAM system with a large number of loyal customers and knowledgeable resellers. With an emphasis on sharing already proven technologies, we will provide the development platform to reinvigorate the Surfcam product and continue to help its customers become more efficient, profitable and successful.
“Following our recent European acquisition of Sescoi (WorkNC), this US acquisition is further evidence of our growing influence on the global manufacturing market. We fully recognise the importance of product branding and it is important to emphasise that we will continue to invest in Surfcam and we welcome the existing US and overseas Surfware partners and resellers into the Vero network."
Alan Diehl and his son Larry originally founded Surfware in 1988, with Alan's other son Bryan joining the company in 1990. Regarding the change, Alan commented: “We have dedicated our lives to developing innovative and productive machining technology. Just as importantly, we enjoy customer and reseller relationships that are the envy of our competitors. We know we are joining a group with a similar view and are confident that Vero's additional resources and global distribution will take Surfcam to new levels of efficiency and productivity.”
