Manufacturers are expected to deliver flawless products even as projects become increasingly complex, making miscommunication and bottlenecks caused by siloed workflows a bigger hurdle to than ever before.
Working with unconnected systems makes it difficult for separate departments to access current information, communicate crucial project details, and act quickly when changes are made.
Cimatron eliminates these barriers by connecting technologies for design, review, and production needs to ensure teams work with the same information for smooth collaboration, fast decision making, and efficient production.
Communication and efficiency increase when project managers, designers, CNC programmers, and shop-floor staff have access to a single source of up-to-date information.
Native Cimatron data can flow seamlessly between design and production departments without the need for translation. Access to identical information eliminates the need for duplicate files, screenshots, and multiple formats.
Design and process verification tools make it easy to catch design errors and review CNC operations before production.
Quicky and reliably import files to analyze and validate designs, drawings, parts, assemblies, and manufacturing data, and visualize engineering changes. Comprehensive CAD/CAM information is accessible with a simplified and intuitive interface that enables project managers to check incoming data for quotation and estimation information.
Easily verify the performance of key design features — including runners, gates, cooling and venting systems, and more. Reviews help confirm parting line locations, undercuts, parting methods, and clearance between mold features and components. For die designs, reviews simplify the analysis of material properties, yield, and tensile strength, as well as material thickness, required tonnage, and overall feasibility.
Assembly is simple to visualize with reviews that support zooming, panning, rotating, dynamic sectioning, and wireframe component views. Users can easily hide or display plates and components, isolate layers, graphically dismantle assemblies, and open or close tools — streamlining even the most complex build processes. Direct access to build details also speeds up the review of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) and the analysis of product manufacturing information (PMI).
Comprehensive reviews of CNC processes make it easy to analyze machining times, tool changes, and the configurations of spindles, tool holders, fixtures, and clamps. Reviews cover machining parameters across 2.5-axis to full 5-axis toolpaths, including 3+2 operations. On the shop floor, staff can quickly generate G-code for any CNC machine, ensuring flexibility and efficiency in production.
