Kubotek Newsletter
March 2013  
Welcome

March Madness is here once again at Kubotek USA - in more ways than one. Besides the green-wearing, egg-dying and bracket-completing activities, we've been busy with our newest release of KeyCreator (version 11.5) with Dynamic Primitives, and a new version of ECO Manager (maybe not in time for this newsletter).   

 

We're also "on the road again" (go ahead, sing along with us). Our 2013 tradeshows and conferences take us to Georgia, Arizona, Florida, Pennsylvania, Illinois (twice), Massachusetts, Colorado, California (twice) and Minnesota. So why don't you come out and see us. We'd love a chance to meet and greet. All of our conferences and tradeshows are listed in the newsletter.

 

If we can't see you in person, we still want to hear from, and work directly with, you. To learn more about what you want in your KeyCreator Direct CAD software, we are starting a series of surveys and discussions with our customers. If you haven't taken the first survey yet, please do so- the link is here in the newsletter. And watch for our first web meeting to discuss the results.

 

We are working to make learning and using KeyCreator Direct CAD easier than ever. Check out our new video tutorials on Kubotek University. These step by step, concise new videos make your life easier and allow you to be as creative as you choose to be.   

 

So, happy March Madness to all of you - and thanks for reading this edition of our newsletter. Your feedback is always welcomed and desired. Contact us anytime at marketing@kubotekusa.com or visit us on Linked-in, Facebook, or Twitter

Are you a Boeing Supplier? 
An Aerospace Supplier?  

If you or someone you know is, listen up.   

 

Boeing's D6-51991 requires that suppliers maintain the integrity of Digital Product Definition (DPD) data through all operations.

 

In short, you need to validate any and all CAD data translations, CAD migrations, or any product data modifications against a master file to ensure accurate part production and better documented processes. 


That's where Kubotek Validation Tool, as part of an approved Boeing Supplier Bundle, can help you exceed the requirements for the Boeing D6-51991 and pass your audit.   

 

We invite any Boeing supplier, as well as other general aerospace suppliers, to learn more about the benefits of Validation Tool now.  You'll enhance your manufacturing processes for a variety of quality related purposes.
