FORT WORTH, TX (13 May 2015)—Pointwise, Inc. has entered into a distributorship agreement with VINAS Co., Ltd. of Japan for sales and support of the Pointwise mesh generation software in China in conjunction with Nanjing TianFu Software Limited.

"Pointwise and VINAS have had a long and successful partnership providing excellent CFD [computational fluid dynamics] meshing software and services to engineers and scientists in Japan,” said Rick Matus, Pointwise vice president for sales and marketing. “We look forward to extending that same level of service to customers in China with the cooperation of Nanjing Tianfu Software Company."

President and CEO of VINAS, Yasuhiko Fujikawa adds, “VINAS’s successful partnership with Pointwise for more than 18 years gives us an advantage both strategically and geographically. We have a role in this new arrangement to provide Nanjing TianFu with the skills and know-how for applying Pointwise’s functional advantages to research and design processes in the Chinese market."

Nanjing TianFu was founded in 2011 by Ming Zhang under a Chinese government initiative. Dr. Zhang was motivated to start Nanjing TianFu to help manufacturing companies in China develop better products by supplying them with Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) services and software.

Dr. Zhang earned his bachelors and masters degrees from Tsinghua University in Beijing, China and his doctorate from Kyushu Institute of Technology in Kyushu, Japan. Before starting Nanjing TianFu, Dr. Zhang worked for ANSYS, Inc. and later Blue Ridge Numerics in Japan.

Dr. Zhang also sees benefit to this new agreement stating, “Pointwise, VINAS, and Nanjing TianFu share a common vision to provide reliable, high-quality preprocessing software and services in China. This strategic cooperation will be mutually beneficial to all three companies and to customers in China.”

In addition to representing Pointwise, Nanjing TianFu also represents FRIENDSHIP SYSTEMS, Germany and Software Cradle, Japan.
