Murano glass lighting
Glass making developed as a trade in the 8th century in Venice. In those times Venice was a separate state located on the crossroads between Europe and Middle East. Venetian merchants were famous not only for their trading skills but also for their ability to get the secrets of craftsmen of the countries they visited and use them in their own production. In medieval times glass making became one of the fastest growing industries. By 13th century there were a lot of small shops making colored and clear glass in Venice. Due to the nature of the production the shops caused frequent fires that severely damaged the city, so it was decided to move all the shops to the island of Murano ? 1,5 km from Venice. This step also helped to keep the secret...

NESTERwood Delivers Double-Digit Material Savings and Speeds Up Production at Ralph's Frame Works
High Point, N.C. (PRWEB) May 6, 2008 -- Ralph's Frame Works (High Point, NC) reports significant savings and productivity gains after implementing Plataine's NESTERwood software.
According to Tom Rice, Owner and President of Ralph's Frame Works, the company has seen consistent material savings of up to 20% since it started using the NESTERwood software less than two months ago. "We are extremely impressed with how quickly we have been able to put NESTERwood to work," says Rice. "We started realizing the benefits in a matter of weeks. At this rate, it will take only a few months for the software to pay for itself."
NESTERwood enables upholstery manufacturers to respond to market dynamics and remain viable in an increasingly competitive global environment, facing customer demands for made-to-order products at competitive prices and with shorter delivery times. NESTERwood's Rolling Nest automatically optimizes the placement of pieces from one or more orders on multiple sheets of plywood, resulting in material yields that are consistently higher than any other solution. By generating efficient tool paths, NESTERwood improves the productivity of CNC routers.
"NESTERwood enables us to be more efficient in the use of material as well as the utilization of our machines," adds Rice. "It makes us more competitive and helps us better serve our customers."
"The furniture industry is continuing to face challenges resulting from a slumping economy, rising material costs, and intensifying overseas competition," says Elery Pfeffer, Plataine's President. "At the same time, there are still many opportunities to improve productivity, reduce costs, and accelerate deliver times. Ralph's Frame Works provides an example of how manufacturers can attain such improvements and respond to these challenges."
