GIVAT SHMUEL, Israel - 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 it will showcase the new versions of GibbsCAM and CimatronE at Intermold Korea 2009 on March 18th (hall 3, section 6).
