Schott Systeme GmbH

Schott Systeme's development center is located in the heart of Munich. Here, a wide range of successfully marketed software applications has been created for more than 35 years. Both for the areas of graphics and design, CAD construction, product presentation and documentation as well as for various CAM technologies and numerous special applications. The success of the core product, the CAD/CAM and IT software Pictures by PC, is based on two key principles that the experts postulated from the very beginning. From the very beginning, they focused on open system architecture and programmability. Originally, the program was launched in 1983 as vector-based graphics software. Thanks to its basic principles, the system has become one of the most powerful solutions currently available for both 2D and 3D design, construction and manufacturing, as well as for rendering and animation.

CAD/CAM and IT software Pictures by PC is based on openness

The Pictures by PC CAD/CAM and IT software from Schott Systeme is a cost-effective solution for design and manufacturing. The software enables 2D CAD design, 3D solid, surface and mesh modeling, technical documentation, rendering and also animation. Standard CAM machining functionalities include 2.5D milling and drilling, 3D milling and drilling, and engraving on 3+2 axis machines. Additional CAM modules include 5-axis simultaneous milling, turning, lathe milling and also wire cutting. When purchasing Pictures by PC CAD/CAM software, users acquire a perpetual license. This means that the license can be used on one workstation with no time limit and, furthermore, no annual maintenance costs. The software is coupled to the computer. Transparent pricing is based on a linear pricing structure with no hidden costs. Post-processors for standard CNC controls are free of charge. In addition, users can generate and modify these post-processors. In addition, users receive free software support and assistance via e-mail and telephone, directly from the software development team.

Schott Systeme offers free service

The Pictures by PC CAD/CAM and IT software from Schott Systeme opens up CNC milling, drilling and engraving of 2D and 3D CAD geometries in just a few steps. The system automatically recognizes pockets and drill holes as features from the CAD. Proven machining strategies can be transferred to new parts with just a few mouse clicks. Tool paths including raw material, work and clamping tools. The user can simulate and also immediately implement in NC programs by means of control-specific post-processors. In addition, he can quickly generate a shop worksheet that lists the part, the tools required and the machining time.
