cimatron elite v13 Cimatron is part of 3D Systems, a leading provider of 3D printing centric design-to-manufacturing solutions including 3D printers, print materials and cloud sourced on-demand custom parts for professionals and consumers alike in materials including plastics, metals, ceramics and edibles. CimatronE and GibbsCAM are two major CAD/CAM software for manufacturing product lines. They cater to all manufacturing sectors, offering specialized solutions for mold and die makers, as well as solutions for 2.5-5 Axis production milling, turning and MTM. Intuitive User Experience New User Interface – The totally new user interface has been vastly improved and is more intuitive, easier to learn and faster to use, bringing with it improved productivity. Display – The graphic engine enables better performance with large models, making full use of the computer’s GPU (video card) and allowing advanced technologies when shading Comprehensive CAD for Tooling Direct Modeling – Allows quick and easy change of: design values of drafts angle, offsets, and radii of rounds as well as face positions. Assembly – Copy Array allows a higher level of automation by copying assembly components in linear or circular array patterns while Distributed Add allows automatic or manual distribution of components added to an assembly into its different sub-assemblies. Drafting – Capabilities were boosted with Dynamic Creation of Multiple Views from selected parts and assemblies in a single operation and many drafting enhancements were added such as Split ID numbers, user defined hatch, reconnect disconnected symbols, copy attributes and style, vertical text, symmetry ordinate dimension and partial section break lines. FEA Analysis – The Finite Element Analysis tool performs stress, normal modes, buckling, and heat transfer analysis on mechanical parts.
