Cimatron say that the new routine will generate the drawbead based upon section type and automatically blend the result into the binder faces.Įlsewhere, support CAM operations, from basic 2D up to complex 5-axis, have been bolstered.
#Impossible shapes to machine manual
Version 2024 includes automation for the Burn Body operation to optimise the electrode body shape, control of electrode extensions, and non-cutting rules for manual construction.ĭie designers can now easier build 3D drawbead geometry to control material flow during the drawing operation in order to achieve the optimal forming of a part without cracks and wrinkles. Within mold design, the construction of 3D runners has been improved, providing better design control based upon constant volume, vertical orientation or section orientation.Įlectrode design is a critical aspect of the mold production process.

In addition, Cimatron 2024 can now create partial ribs in complex scenarios where a complete rib cannot be produced. Mold makers gain CAD enhancements for rib construction with added functionality for working on multiple curves in a single operation and automatically extending rib geometry to part side walls. There are new features for 2D drafting, such as importing PDFs as real geometry and text, new minimum distance dimensioning, enhanced symbols, and improved geometric datum and tolerancing.Ĭimatron 2024 also introduces a cleaner UI for controlling drafting standards, improved draft analysis visualisation, and automated chain selection of chamfer faces. Workflow updates include multi-view spacing, batch-processing for drawing updates, tangent control for blending faces, and an option for easier capping of internal islands.

By leveraging the CoroPlus Tool Library, users gain access to a collection of over 900,000 cutting tool items, with the system making intelligent tool recommendations based on material, operation, and tool type. Leveraging Sandvik’s cutting knowledge and expertise is a prime benefit to our customers and enables them to deliver higher quality tools faster, easier and more efficiently than ever before.”Ĭimatron say that the new release places a ‘strong emphasis on digital connectivity’, and in this instance is establishes direct integration with the Sandvik Coromant CoroPlus Tool Library and TDM tool management system, much like sister company Mastercam’s most recent announcement. Sandvik has released Cimatron 2024, adding more efficient workflows and adding stronger core capabilities while incorporating new technology through collaboration with Sandvik Coromant.ĭiscussing the new release, Cimatron VP Antonio Parisse, said: “There is a good balance between product innovation and customer-driven enhancements.
