History
TopSolid was created by Missler Software, a privately held company based in Paris, France, originally founded as Missler Informatique in 1984 by the Missler brothers, who designed and manufactured CNC machines. In the early 1990s, Missler joined forces with Toulouse-based Topcad to develop integrated CAD/CAM software, and after a management buyout in the early 2000s, the company consolidated its entities to advance the TopSolid product line, which now includes TopSolid, TopSolid’Erp, and GOelan.[2]
