CimatronE Selected to Highlight "Automation in Mold and Tool Making" at Euromold

GIVAT SHMUEL- Cimatron Limited announced that CimatronE will be included in a special feature show about automation in mold and tool making at Euromold, December 2nd-5th, in Frankfurt, Germany.

The special feature show on automation will take place in hall 8.0. CimatronE, a solution tailored to suit the needs of mold and die makers, has been chosen to participate in the show because of its impressive range of automatic features, allowing users to significantly speed up their tool design and manufacturing.

With this special show, EuroMold plans to show attendees current possibilities of automation within mold making and tooling. Eight machines will demonstrate the fully automatic process and the interaction of diverging technologies within one production cell. Each production cell will include a handling device with cartridges, two milling machines, two measuring machines, one washing plant and two EDM machines.

CimatronE has been developed on the principle of flexible automation. This means that while many tasks can be accomplished faster using automatic features, the user is in control of their process and can choose at any time to override all automatic functions, providing the tool maker with complete freedom.

CimatronE's automatic features include a wide range of tools dedicated to mold design. These tools help split the part and design the cavity, as well as streamline the assembly process and assist users in the design of runners, cooling channels, sliders and ejectors. Analysis tools are also available to help ensure the part's design is optimal for injection molding and to help tool makers handle last minute changes.

The CimatronE product line also includes an integrated solution for Electrode design and manufacture, which was praised by CIMdata as one of the most advanced available. The solution allows for swift design of electrodes and offers templates and other tools to speed up work.

NC programming (2.5-5-Axis) takes place in the same environment as design and is optimized for tool making, with several milling strategies that help the user achieve a high surface quality.

"We are proud of the balance we have reached with regards to automation and we believe this is why Euromold has chosen CimatronE for its feature show," said Dirk Dombert, General Manager of Cimatron GmbH. "Automation is useful because it can significantly reduce delivery time. On the other hand, no tool maker wants to give up control of their design and manufacturing processes to a wizard that claims to know best. With CimatronE's flexible automation, users take advantage of automation to speed up their manufacturing and always remain in complete control of their process."

Cimatron GmbH will demonstrate its two product lines at Euromold, CimatronE and GibbsCAM, catering to all manufacturing sectors and offering specialized solutions for mold and die makers, as well as solutions for 2.5-5-Axis production milling and turning (hall 8, booth F70).
