Unlocking Efficiency and Innovation: A Deep Dive into Cimatron E15

1. Core Philosophy & Key Changes in E15

Before diving into clicks, understand Cimatron E15’s positioning: cimatron e15

: New analysis tools allow designers to detect the distance between cooling lines and part faces more accurately. Conformal Cooling Unlocking Efficiency and Innovation: A Deep Dive into

6. Post-processing

  • NC Code Generation: Once the toolpaths are verified, generate the NC (Numerical Control) code for your CNC machine.
  • Machine-specific Post-processing: Apply any necessary post-processing to ensure compatibility with your specific CNC machine.

On-Machine Inspection: Support for inspection reporting directly on the machine helps ensure part accuracy before it is removed from the fixture. Resources for Further Reading NC Code Generation : Once the toolpaths are

Example Workflow for a Deep Pocket (Depth > 8x Tool Diameter)

  1. Roughing – Large endmill with trochoidal entry, limited to depth possible without holder collision.
  2. Second roughing – Longer tool with rest roughing, using peel milling.
  3. Semi-finishing – Z-level with small stepdown, avoid recutting chips (use air blast / through-coolant).
  4. Finishing – Spiral 3D or Z-level with shallow stepover, high feed.
  5. Cleanup – Pencil milling on bottom fillets, then shallow area finishing.

One of the standout features of Cimatron 15 is its focus on cooling efficiency. The software introduces a dedicated application for conformal cooling design, which is critical for reducing injection cycle times.

Programming Automation: Features like 3+2-axis automated remachining help reduce the manual effort required for complex toolpaths.

: Automatically finds the best orientation for a mold's opening direction to minimize under-cuts, which is critical for complex automotive or industrial parts. Enhanced Plate Machining : Includes new procedures like Corner Plunging
