Press Release Summary: Optimation Nesting Technology Leader Has Fire truck Client
Profiled on National Geographic's Ultimate Factories

Press Release Body: For 30 years Optimation(r) (www.optimation.com) has been the world
leader in Part Nesting for Optimized Material and Labor utilization. Consistently
providing product advancement leadership to industry, the company's new Nesting
Technology, AxiomVE make previous nesting methods obsolete. The new technology,
Vision Emulation(tm), allows the system to "see" the shape of parts, just as human eyes
would view them. When a person looks at a part, they see the whole shape and any
special features on the part. This information is then used to determine if the
part will fit in an area of the nest. Vision Emulation eliminates excessive trial
and error as well as excessive rotation.
Michael D. Lundy, P.E., President & CEO of Optimation offered congratulations to
Pierce Manufacturing for being selected as one of the few companies that are
showcased on the Ultimate Factories Series by National Geographic.

Ultimate Factories has explored manufacturing goliaths such as Harley Davidson, BMW,
Corvette and 'brings to life some of the greatest one-of-a-kind factories in the
world.' The 'Fire Trucks' documentary features the sequence of events it takes to

advanced "Ultimate Factories". Watch for this series on your local National
