Starchaser And PTC Renew Partnership For Space Success.Starchaser Uses Pro/ENGINEER[R] to Drive Product Innovation for Its Space Initiative NEEDHAM, Mass. -- PTC (PTC, Needham, MA, www.ptc.com) Long a world leader in mechanical computer-aided design, manufacturing and engineering software, PTC, through acquisitions and reorganization, has transformed itself into a leading provider of Internet-based B2B solutions for discrete manufacturers. (Nasdaq: PMTC PMTC Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission (of HIV/AIDS) PMTC Pacific Missile Test Center PMTC Professional Multimedia Test Center ), the Product Development Company[TM], today announced that Starchaser Industries, a privately held high tech company, renewed its commitment to Pro/ENGINEER, the PTC integrated CAD/CAM/CAE solution, for another three years. Starchaser Industries is specialized in the development, operation and commercialization of space-related products for both the emerging micro-satellite and space tourism markets. PTC Pro/ENGINEER in combination with Pro/ENGINEER Mechanica[R] is used in all areas of research and development for rockets, rocket engines and other systems. Pro/ENGINEER is playing a vital role in the development of the new STORM bi-liquid rocket engine.

"Without the use of PTC software we would have found it virtually impossible to remain competitive," said Steve Bennett The name Steve Bennett refers to more than one person:
Starchaser Industries is applying a tried and tested, step-by-step approach to allow real progress based on experience. One example is the development of its rocket propulsion Rocket propulsion The process of imparting a force to a flying vehicle, such as a missile or a spacecraft, by the momentum of ejected matter. This matter, called propellant, is stored in the vehicle and ejected at high velocity. STORM, soon to be tested. The rocket engine is powered by the same liquid oxygen/kerosene propellant pro·pel·lant also pro·pel·lent n. 1. Something, such as an explosive charge or a rocket fuel, that propels or provides thrust. 2. combination that took Apollo to the moon. The highly complex STORM engine is benefiting from the use of Pro/ENGINEER, as the development team is able to address complex design challenges very quickly. With the help of Pro/ENGINEER Mechanica structural and thermal simulation they can better understand and explore the engine performance without costly prototyping. By gaining early and deep product insights Starchaser is able to realize a higher number of design options in a shorter period of time and is spending less money. As a rocket engine needs to resist enormous stress, Pro/ENGINEER Mechanica also analyzes this stress upfront allowing the necessary changes a lot earlier in the process. "World-class A&D companies use product development solutions like Pro/ENGINEER to support the development of highly complex products which are defined by complex information," said Richard Prince

"The scaleable set of capabilities delivered by Pro/ENGINEER significantly increases the productivity of mechanical designers and enables small and focused development teams to accomplish what larger organizations do with a smaller workforce. Small to medium A&D companies use Pro/ENGINEER to deliver productivity improvements which translate into a market differentiator in a highly competitive environment."
