Momentum Builds for Geomagic’s New Scan-in-CAD Software

MORRISVILLE, N.C. – February 14, 2013 – Geomagic®, a global company providing 3D technology for digital reality, today announced it has signed over 30 new resellers worldwide as part of its Geomagic Spark product launch. The Company also kicked off a loyalty promotion that rewards existing customers with a price incentive as they add Geomagic Spark into their product design processes. 

Geomagic Spark, the company’s newest 3D software solution, blends live 3D scanning, powerful point cloud and mesh editing, direct-modeling CAD and more – all within a single application and at a game-changing price. With included CAD tools, like assembly relationship modeling and annotated 2D drawing creation, Geomagic Spark is helping automotive, electronics, industrial design, consumer goods, tooling and aerospace companies accelerate product development, facilitate better inter-team communication, increase reliability in scan-to-CAD operations, produce documentation, and shorten design windows.

Since the announcement of Geomagic Spark in November 2012, Geomagic has recruited dozens of new resellers who are excited about the new product.

“Geomagic Spark represents a quantum leap in modeling from scan data that my customers have been asking for,” said Paul Benbow, president, NextWave Technology, a new reseller for Geomagic. “Geomagic Spark enables them to go easily from scan to modeling and then to edit those models. You can easily model from partial scans, and ultimately be more productive. It’s a sure market winner.”

“Geomagic Spark has piqued the interest of many new resellers, and we're excited about that. Our new resellers enable greater access for customers throughout the worldwide design community,” said Len Chamberlain, vice president of sales, Geomagic. “Spark is creating new opportunities for companies that already have scanners and for those that use scan service bureaus. Its user-friendly interface enables everyone to participate in the design process, eliminating the bottlenecks that often clog traditional CAD departments.”

To further build momentum for its newest product, Geomagic is offering attractive price promotions to existing customers that have maintenance contracts with Geomagic. The promotional pricing is only available through March 31, 2013, to current commercial customers with active contracts, or current customers who purchase a new 2-year maintenance contract. Educational institutions, which already enjoy a deeper discount, are excluded from this promotion. Customers can find out more through their resellers or directly with Geomagic.
