The addition of the Camtek people will allow us to enhance both the PEPS and VISI-Series product ranges, as well as adding solutions for the wire EDM market, advanced production CAM, and specialist solutions for laser and tube cutting."

Babbs continued, "Camtek have been established in the production sector for a number of years and with two improved product ranges we have confidence in being able to expand in both the mould and die and production sectors. The combined talents of the two teams will enable us to offer our customers both new functionality and new applications to further increase the productivity of both product lines."

Camtek Managing Director Brian Warner said, "The synergy of our joint products and development activities, coupled with the close proximity of Vero International Software's UK headquarters and the size of its overseas network will allow us to increase the visibility and penetration of our PEPS Solidcut CADCAM suite around the world."
