Cimatron to Showcase its New Machine Simulator at CMTS, Toronto.Summary: Cimatron Limited (Nasdaq: CIMT CIMT Constraint Induced Movement Therapy CIMT Crime(s) Involving Moral Turpitude CIMT China International Machine Tool Show CIMT Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching (UK) ), a leading provider of integrated CAD/CAM CAD/CAM in full computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing. Integration of design and manufacturing into a system under direct control of digital computers. solutions for mold, tool and die makers Tool and die makers are highly skilled workers in the manufacturing industry. Some of the job functions of a tool and die maker consist of producing jigs, fixtures, form tools, dies, molds, machine tools, cutting tools, and many other mechanical items used in manufacturing as well as manufacturers of discrete Cimatron Limited (Nasdaq: CIMT), a leading provider of integrated CAD/CAMsolutions for mold, tool and die makers as well as manufacturers of discreteparts, announced that it will exhibit the latest version of CimatronE at theCanadian Manufacturing Technology Show. At the show, Cimatron will display its new machine simulator (1) Software that enables the execution of an application written for a different computer environment. Same as emulator. (2) Software that models the interactions of hypothetical or real-world objects or business processes. andemphasize enhancements to NC programming capabilities, many of which cater tothe specific machining requirements of toolmakers. These enhancements areincluded in the recently released CimatronE version 9.0, which contains awide range of improved functions and new capabilities, upgrading themanufacturing process from quoting to delivery. CimatronE 9.0 provides a new machine simulator, using a more advancedmethod to accurately and reliably verify the machining process. The simulatordisplays material removal within the machine environment for both 3-Axis and5-Axis machines. CimatronE 9.0 will also provide NC programmers with increased machiningefficiency, better surface quality and improved performance. Version 9.0 alsoincludes a Product Manufacturing Information Product and Manufacturing Information, or PMI, is used in 3D computer-aided design (CAD) and Collaborative Product Development systems to convey information on the design of a product’s components for manufacturing. (PMI See Private Mortgage Insurance. ) display. Machining efficiency is increased at every level. Roughing is now moreefficient because of greater awareness of remaining stock. This eliminatesair cutting, ensures greater safety in the machining process and extendsmachine life and tool life. Multi-axis roughing is now more effective due toautomatic transformation of the stock, saving time during roughing and atlater stages. The multi-Axis Automated Drill now includes full stockrecognition to speed up the drilling process and save time. New programming functions facilitate a higher surface quality. Finishingfunctions include features that increase accuracy and smoothness. Among theseis a new "Cleanup - All Along" strategy which enables users to machine thearea left by the previous cutter with long, uninterrupted tool passes. Thenew version also includes enhancements to maintain the sharpness of externaland embedded Inserted into. See embedded system. edges. Version 9.0 of CimatronE provides dedicated functions needed toaccomplish better manufacturing in a broader range of industries, includingthe medical and dental industries, as well as the aerospace and other highprecision industries. Enhancements include further adaption adaption see adaptation. of the interfaceto work with STL (STereoLithography) A 3D printing file format created by 3D Systems for its stereolithography system. Also supported by many numerical control, rapid prototyping and rapid manufacturing machines, STL provides the surface geometry of the item in triangles. free form files and improvements in high speed machining andmicro milling capabilities. Enhancements for 5-Axis tilting include newmachining strategies to significantly speed up the calculation process. The new version of CimatronE offers higher performance. Calculation timeshave been reduced in most areas and performance of the software in generalhas improved, with full support of dual core and quad core A single chip with four distinct processors that work simultaneously. Intel introduced its first x86-based quad-core CPUs in late 2006 (see Core 2), and AMD introduced its first x86 quad-core chips in 2007 (see Opteron). See dual core. processors. Version 9.0 allows manufacturers to store Product ManufacturingInformation (PMI); annotations and notes are passed on through the differentstages of the project from design to the shop floor. Product ManufacturingInformation is also transferable to and from other standard CAD systems. "We are excited to showcase the newest version of CimatronE at theCanadian Manufacturing Technology Show" said Bill Gibbs, President ofCimatron Technologies Inc. "While the manufacturing industry continues tofeel the strain of the current economic crisis, we hope that technology canlend a hand. The new version of CimatronE is equipped with the capabilitiesnecessary to lower costs, eliminate wasted time and increase productivity." In addition to NC programming related updates, CimatronE 9.0 also offersenhancements including a new quoting application for die makers, newautomation for tool design and electrode electrode, terminal through which electric current passes between metallic and nonmetallic parts of an electric circuit. In most familiar circuits current is carried by metallic conductors, but in some circuits the current passes for some distance through a design as well as enhancements for5-Axis manufacturing of discrete parts. The CimatronE solutions will be presented at booth 25005, October 19-22,2009 at the Direct Energy Center, Toronto, Ontario.
