Company

Macsys was founded as a General Partnership (Dutch V.O.F.) on October 13, 2006 by A.J.P. Schalkwijk and M. Alfons. The name Macsys is inspired by CAM software Cimatron, where MACSYS stands for MAchine COordinate SYStem. Macsys Engineering B.V. and Macsys Holding B.V. are founded May 22, 2012, replacing the existing partnership structure. In 2019 Macsys Engineering BV activities have all been transferred to Macsys Holding BV.

3d Printing [years 2006-2008]

Macsys's pilot project; 3d printed house on wooden pedestal. Details are in the 0.8-1mm range, layer step size is 0.2mm

Macsys uses SketchUp software to transform architectural 2d drawings into 3d surface models. The 3d surface models are fed into Z-Corp printers to create tangible solid models or maquettes. Z-Corp printers use inkjet-technology to create full color models, making them ideal for visualization.

Traditionally, architectural models are handmade using various materials. These materials have a look and feel that is close to the finished building, something that can not be achieved with 3d printing. The benefit of 3d printing is speed. A virtual 3d model is created faster and in finer detail then hand crafted models, especially if the building design is available digitally. Because 3d printed models are build up in layers, the surface finish is inferior to traditional models. The surface finish however can be improved by sanding or bead blasting.

Engineering Service [years 2008 - Current]

Dutch Boxer Commando Post

Quick Release

Quick release soap connector for MMID and used in Touch Free Hygienic Dispensers. Macsys Holding BV developed the lock & release concept for connecting a soap bag. A robust lever turns a rotating action into a linear action, locking or releasing the soap bag. The concept needed minimal changes to transfer too mass production.

Boxer PWV

Boxer armored fighting vehicle.

Mathcad Calculations

Rectilinear Kinematics, Continues motion

Mathcad is computer software primarily intended for the verification, validation, documentation and re-use of engineering calculations developed by Mathsoft. Mathcad is relatively easy to learn and has WYSIWYG functionality, which is a big advantage over the 'hidden' and 'text based' formulas used in Microsoft Exel. Unfortunately Mathcad was purchased by PTC and as a consequence became less accessible, more expensive, more bulky - but - still superior compared to Microsoft Exel. Macsys uses Mathcad Client 2001 for making and reporting engineering calculations. A practical starters guide for learning Mathcad can be found here.

SimWise4D

Simwise 4D integrates motion with FEA

SimWise 4D was born when DST acquired a license from MSC Software Corporation to the MSC.visualNastran 4D (vn4D) product. The software traces its roots to the Working Model 3D product developed by Knowledge Revolution, which was acquired by MSC in 1999, extended to include FEA capabilities, and renamed Working Model 4D. It has found tens of thousands of users among engineering professionals, students, and educators. In 2021 Macsys Holding BV accuired a perpetual licence from DST for the use of SimWise 4D software.
