- New Version Includes Motion Simulation, NC Background Calculations, Better ECO, and More

Cimatron Limited (Nasdaq: CIMT), a leading provider of integrated CAD/CAM solutions for mold, tool and die makers as well as manufacturers of discrete parts, announced that the newest version of CimatronE will be unveiled at the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) this September.

Version 10.0 continues CimatronE's focus on providing higher quality tools in shorter delivery times. The latest enhancements cover the entire tool design and manufacturing process from quoting to delivery, and provide extensive competitive benefits for toolmakers, in a single integrated solution.

CAD enhancements provide stronger, more powerful capabilities, including a new built-in motion simulator, which specializes in tooling and provides an advanced, event based analysis of kinematics. Die makers will enjoy an easier, more intuitive strip design process and greater automation for tool design. Mold designers will find that handling changes is simpler, with more powerful ECO analysis and implementation.

CAM enhancements dramatically increase programming productivity, with background calculations and enhanced multi-core processing. Machining times are reduced, with significant upgrades to rough and cleanup strategies, and there's a new helical finishing strategy.

"We're proud to preview version 10.0 of CimatronE to IMTS visitors," said Danny Haran, Cimatron's CEO. "This version provides our customers with many powerful new features and enhancements across the board. When upgrading to version 10.0, our customers will feel the difference immediately, with shorter delivery times, as well as higher quality design and manufacturing.

"I am sure that all of our NC customers will highly appreciate the new background calculation of NC procedures - providing the fastest NC programming experience we have ever offered."

IMTS will take place September 13-18, at McCormick Place, Chicago, IL, USA. The Cimatron Group booth number is E-3810.
