Cimatron 15.0 SP4 HF2
3D Systems (DDD) has announced the release of version 15 of its Cimatron software for mold-, die- and tool-makers. This new version introduces new and enhanced capabilities that can dramatically accelerate productivity whilst minimizing cost in the design and manufacturing of molds, dies and discrete parts.
Introducing Cimatron 15
Cimatron 15 introduces hundreds of new and enhanced capabilities, aimed to enable toolmakers deliver high quality tools faster and easier, while reducing costs. New, enhanced and automated NC programming capabilities enable manufacturers to shorten programming and machining time. A new Mill/Turn application was added to the Cimatron NC environment enabling customers to program Mill/Turn and Turning machines within the same familiar environment. New and enhanced tool design capabilities enable mold makers to design faster, improve manufacturing quality and get optimal design of Molds, using automated cooling design capabilities and new analysis tools.
Cimatron software by 3D Systems is a dedicated solution for tooling and addresses the entire tool-making process—from quoting, to design, to applying engineering changes, to NC programming. The access to CAD and CAM capabilities with the latest simulation tools in one software platform allows mold makers to reduce design and delivery time and become more productive. Cimatron provides a full range of NC technologies from simple 2.5 axis milling and drilling to complex five-axis machining and micro milling.
Cimatron is designed to address the entire tool making process—from quoting to design, applying engineering changes and NC programming. This enables tool and mold makers to deliver higher quality tools at lower cost with shorter cycle times.
Also Cimatron delivers expert toolsets for conformal cooling designs plus interactive simulations to determine areas of the design where conformal cooling can assist, the company says. These tools validate the design for cooling efficiency, injection-molded part quality, and overall injection cycle time reduction. Cimatron by 3D Systems provides mold makers with the automation, and dedicated tools for their respective needs.
