"During an extensive benchmark we realized that HyperWorks would best suit our needs",� stated Maurizio Gattiglio, Director, 2D Machines Division, Prima Industrie. "We have high expectations for HyperWorks. In our development of 2D laser systems, we had reached the limits of machine optimization that traditional approaches allow. With HyperWorks and OptiStruct we hope to break through these limits. Our department alone develops and builds more than 200 machines per year. We expect to reduce the cost per machine by several hundred euros through materials savings while maintaining the high quality of our laser systems. This will give us a quick return on our software investment and tremendous improvements in the development and production processes."
