VISTAGY, Inc. announced that ING Renault F1 Team Technical Director Bob Bell will present at the VISTAGY stand (#B36) during the JEC Composites Show 2007 in Paris, France on Tuesday, April 3, 2007. Mr. Bell will outline how the team's partnership with VISTAGY helps it meet the production schedules and complex design challenges related to developing composite parts for its racecars. VISTAGY will be in attendance at the event from April 3 - 5 at the Paris Expo, Porte de Versailles and will feature at its stand the ING Renault F1 Team racecar, presentations by ING Renault F1 Team executives, and the latest versions of its FiberSIM® composites engineering software and Airframe Design EnvironmentT (ADE) software for developing airframe assemblies. VISTAGY executives will also deliver informative presentations during the show.

As Technical Director, Mr. Bell is charged with all aspects of the composites design and manufacturing strategy for the ING Renault F1 Team racecars. The team has used VISTAGY's FiberSIM software to design and manufacture composite components on four generations of racecars, including the R25 and R26 cars that won back-to-back Federation Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) Formula One Drivers' and Constructors' World Championships in 2005 and 2006. Mr. Bell will give the following presentations at the VISTAGY stand:

"VISTAGY's Contribution to the World Champion ING Renault F1 Team"

Tuesday, April 3: 11:00 and 16:00

In addition to featuring FiberSIM software for F1 racecar design at its stand, VISTAGY will showcase its Airframe Design Environment software, which collectively with FiberSIM delivers the industry's only complete 3D global engineering environment specifically for developing airframes. The software, which is tightly integrated into major commercial CAD systems, supports the entire end-to-end airframe development process-from conceptual composites design through detailed design, manufacturing, assembly and quality assurance. For the first time, manufacturers can utilize a single, seamless engineering platform that supports all design methodologies and phases of airframe development in order to more quickly, accurately, and cost-effectively create the world's most innovative composite products.
