Fresh out of the army, I started my first real job in Januari 1995. DLoG created hardware and software for drilling and milling machines. I installed our software and trained machine operators in The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and Poland.
A big part of my work was writing interfaces (post processors) between our software and factory machines. Here you see a drawing that is converted to machine instructions for a specific milling machine.
The software was created in Olching, Germany. I managed the dutch version of the software, including icon and screen design. First for DOS, then for Windows.
Me, teaching customers how to operate the CAD/CAM software.
