CimatronE Mold Making Customers Gain Speed Just By Upgrading
Cimatron today announced that its latest version of CimatronE includes a large selection of enhancements for mold makers.
“CimatronE 10 surpasses all previous versions, offering significantly faster mold design and manufacturing capabilities, while increasing quality,” said Ira Bareket, Cimatron’s VP Sales and Marketing. “Current customers are expected to shorten delivery times by 10-25% just by upgrading.”
The most significant Mold Design enhancements include:
· Enhanced analysis to quickly establish parting directions and the parting line, as well as locate areas where sliders and lifters are needed.
· Increased ability to use hybrid solid operations to create shutoff and runoff surfaces –saves hours of modeling time.
· New analysis tools to verify design of shutoff and runoff surfaces – in order to find and fix design flaws at a very early stage.
· New Lifter applicative tool that uses commercial or user-designed catalog parts to automatically create any type of lifter, no matter how complex. Pockets are also automatically created in the relevant mold plates.
· New Insert applicative tool that creates multiple inserts simultaneously. Pockets are also created automatically in the relevant mold plates.
· New Early Machining capabilities – users can start manufacturing (milling, drilling, electrode and wire EDM core, cavity and other components) on the first day of design, dramatically shortening overall delivery times.
· Improved analysis capabilities for detection of changes and more options for automatically applying ECOs and other changes.
· Improved analysis for solid repair. Although CimatronE works very well with open or non-stitched geometry, stitching can increase the benefit of automated tools.
