[edit] Business alliances
Camtek joined the JETCAM group in 1999,[1] and remained part of it until at least October 2006.[2]
In November 2001, Camtek finalized a worldwide distribution agreement with Delcam for reselling its Wire EDM package, and development work was reported to be underway in integrating it into PowerMILL software.[3]
In December 2006, Vero International Software, a CADCAM software company located nearby in Stroud, acquired Camtek for its wire EDM, tube cutting and laser cutting capabilities.[4] At the time the company had a turnover of £1.9M with assets of £750k, including a building valued at £350k.[5]
