Ikerlan's experience over the past 10 years has gathered in the new IKERCAD product. The integrated IKERCAD system is aimed at CAD/CAM, so it relates the design, calculation and manufacture of the technical departments of the companies.

On the one hand it has a design module called IKERGEO. This module, along with recursive symbols and macros or transformation functions, provides very complex designs. In addition, it has many possibilities of layering, drawing, tolerance of position and shape of the planes.

On the other hand, the IKERCAM module has been developed for assisted programming of numerical control machine tools. Based on the geometry generated by the SGEIC, the system can interactively define structures to be machined, such as open and closed environments and point mists.

Simulation and creation of point-to-point movements by IKERCAM, enclosures, slotted, etc. It also channels.

On 6/11/89 Ikerlan and Tektronix, S.A. signed a license agreement for the marketing of IKERCAD.
