Camarillo, Calif. — Sept. 17, 2008 — Computer-aided-manufacturing industry innovator DP Technology will present ESPRIT® 2009, the latest version of its CAM software, at Micronora 2008, the 17th International Microtechnology Fair, to take place Sept. 23-26 in Besançon, France.

On display at Micronora 2008 will be technologies for those in search of precision in small dimensions, including exhibits related to micromechanical engineering, microelectronics, machine tools and other machinery, measuring instruments and systems, tools, robotics and much more. The last installation of Micronora drew 990 exhibitors and 15,000 professional visitors.

Visitors can find ESPRIT exhibits in Hall A2, booth 617, as well as at booths 141-143, 240-242, 443-447 and 542-546. Those who visit the booths can expect one-on-one interaction with DP Technology’s resellers, as well as demonstrations of new software upgrades.

This latest version of the ESPRIT software is the result of a balanced effort focusing on both the shorter terms needs of its existing customers and the longer term direction of the metal-working community. A significant number of new, innovative technologies in the areas of 3- and 5-axis milling, feature recognition and user interface are being introduced with this new version, as well as a long list of productivity enhancing features for milling, turning and wire EDM part programming. ESPRIT 2009 is designed to run on both the Microsoft Windows XP and Microsoft Vista operating systems.

On display at Micronora 2008, enhancements within ESPRIT 2009 reduce the time required to produce part programs, increase the quality of those programs and help reduce machining cycle times.
