The founding of Nordcad

Nordcad Systems A/S is founded, and becomes a distributor of the OrCAD products for schematics (SDT) and print layout (PCB2/PCB386). At this time, the PC has entered the development of electronics, and the first deliveries of software takes place via motorbike and are in the form of floppy disks. Soon after, sales and support of Microsim PSpice for mixed analog/digital simulation begins.

In 1988, Arvid Thorndahl starts in sales and marketing.

New owners

In 1994, Arvid Thorndahl takes over the ownership and is inlisted as CEO. At the time, OrCAD was becoming the industry’s preferred diagramming tool. At the same time, PSpice had a good hold both in industry, schools and students, e.g. with their lite version. Many orders came in by fax and licenses were sent out by carrier. There were thick manuals for the tools and training was conducted using overhead projectors.

In 1995, Ole Ejlersen is enlisted as CTO, and he quickly becomes a major asset for Nordcad. Ole sets new standards for technical support, and has been a decisive factor in Nordcad consistently providing unsurpassed support to all users. In 2001, Ole becomes part of the ownership group, and together with Arvid, a race to become the Nordic region’s leading ECAD supplier begins.

Largest supplier in the North

On January 1st 2017, the opportunity to service electronics companies in Norway opens up, and Nordcad becomes responsible for distribution to Norwegian electronics companies under the subsidiary Nordcad AS. At this point, Nordcad becomes Scandinavia’s largest supplier of software for electronics development.

In Nordcad, we are constantly working towards the goal of strengthening Danish and Norwegian electronics development, which is why a physical office was opened in Forskningsparken in Oslo in 2019. Here, we will contribute to the development of the innovation environment, as well as share our knowledge and skills with the network.

The growth in Nordcad continues as we help a large number of Danish companies integrate the electronics design tools and other systems such as PLM/ERP/financial systems.
