By John McEleney Are copies of your proprietary designs on multiple computers in multiple locations – with partners, manufacturers, vendors and suppliers? Do you have an inadvertent leakage problem without even knowing it? Odds are extremely high that both your answers are a screaming “YES!” As John Rousseau, who leads the Operations team here at Onshape, puts it, here’s one scenario where you could confidently say you have no security problem: “Keeping your data on a desktop machine in a physically secure room with no network connection, no other users, and no other software (except a traditional CAD package) would…
There can’t be many Haas Technical Education Centres (HTECs) in the world that are as well-built, well-equipped and well-staffed as the one at La Joliverie Technical College, in Nantes, France. All HTECs are created to the exacting standards laid down in the Haas programme, but even so, most are relatively modest additions to a school or college, perhaps with two or three Haas machines and perhaps a computer room, for a few CAD/CAM seats. At La Joliverie, there are ten Haas machines, supplied by regional Haas Factory Outlet (HFO) Realmeca, including an EC400 horizontal machining centre and an ST-30Y turning…
Jon Hirschtick is the founder of Onshape, the first professional 3D CAD system to run on a web browser, phone or tablet. He previously founded SolidWorks, was the director of engineering at Computervision, and began his career as an intern at the MIT CADLab. His hobbies include magic, golf, blackjack, 3D printing, tennis and yoga. Over the last four decades, I’ve watched CAD grow to become a vital part of the way virtually all products are designed and manufactured. In 1981, when I was a student at MIT’s CAD research lab, there were probably only thousands of CAD users in…

The advent of continuously falling prices in electronics and power electronics combined with the ever increasing cost and scarcity of labour has certainly pushed us into the age of robotics. The fact that China, a country where all economic factors were identical to that of India’s in the 1980s and a country that was known in the past decades as the world’s manufacturing hub due to its low labour costs, is today also the world’s largest consumer of industrial robots. This itself is a proof that we have already entered the age of robotics. They say people should think and…
