[Italian] SpaceMouse e CadMouse - Usage tests

Prosoft Intesys

With SpaceMouse, CadMouse, Keyboard and Numpad I'm unbeatably fast and can use Inventor smartly! The 3Dconnexion devices have been essential to me for working efficiently with Inventor for over 20 years. Why should I settle for less!

To speak with German humorist Vicco von Bülow alias Loriot: Working without 3DConnexion devices is conceivable, but pointless. In addition to the Marking Menu of Inventor, the "CadMouse Wireless" and the "SpaceMouse Enterprise" guarantee quick success in every training and further education.

The use of virtual models is very important in factory planning at KOCH. It is necessary that they are used in all process steps. Handling in virtual space with the SpaceMouse® Enterprise Kit 2 is crucial for the company in terms of speed, accuracy, ergonomics and cost savings at the workplace.
