The First Ever National Computer-Aided Draughting & Design Conference took place on 14 November at the Airport Grand Hotel and Conference Centre in Boksburg. The event was a success with over 50 representatives of the computer aided design industry in South Africa attending.

Key note speakers included Chris Brink, President of the South African Draughting Institute as well as Dr Kelvin Kemm, a mathematician, nuclear physicist and regular contributor to Engineering News. The conference explored current trends and innovation in computer aided design software and training initiatives.

Customer Quote

 
 

Annas Brandt

DLV Consulting,
Western Cape

 

"All our designs are detailed with the help of AllyCAD. I've been using the software since 1988 and enjoy the software because it is quick and simple to use and the transition from the drawing board to AllyCAD was not difficult at all. I would definitely recommend it."
