Detailed information

• 

  【CAD Function】Flexible and Efficient Operability: The large and clear interface is intuitive and highly customizable, taking into account ease of learning the system and work efficiency.

• 

  【CAD Function】Mesh Data Editing Function: It provides top-class features such as Boolean operations between mesh objects, offsetting closed/open mesh bodies, shelling mesh bodies, and fairing/simplifying (decimation) mesh bodies. It is a hybrid environment where solid and mesh models can be worked on simultaneously.

• 

  【CAD Function】Utilizing Manufacturing Attributes in NC: You can define manufacturing attributes such as accuracy and tolerances (or import color-coded files via DI) and assign them to specified holes, shafts, or surfaces. This information can later be used for automatic drilling or drafting.

• 

  [CAM Function] Plate Processing Solution: Pocket Rough Machining The 2.5-axis pocket procedure provides processing for open/closed pockets, supports high-speed machining, and avoids holder collisions.

• 

  Support for ultra-precision machining: Our services can be utilized for products such as aspherical lenses used in optical devices, various lens arrays, and Fresnel lenses, as well as their mold processing. We accommodate ultra-precision machining with accuracy down to the nano level. As shown in the next image, we have achieved mirror finishing on various 3D curved surfaces that were difficult to polish with conventional methods.

• 

  Efficiency improvement in assembly design work for plastic molds: We support assembly regardless of size, from ultra-precise small molds for optical lens arrays and medical devices to large molds for automotive bumpers, and we flexibly respond to conceptual design and concurrent engineering, which are crucial in the design process.

• 

  Integrated Finite Element Analysis for Press Molds: Cimatron's Finite Element Analysis (FEM) can quickly analyze part shapes using advanced algorithms, allowing for the prediction of potential defects. As a result, designers can correct issues before prototype production. By providing high-precision part analysis, it accurately assesses material thickness, cracking, and wrinkling, thereby improving product moldability and quality.
