Features: Cimatron is a highly excellent full-featured CAD/CAM/PDM software launched by Cimatron Company in Israel. With its advanced mold design and NC machining capabilities, it has been widely applied in the global mold industry and has become the de facto leader in the field of mold CAD/CAM. This book is based on the introduction of the modeling, drafting, and NC machining functions of Cimatronit V12, with mold design and manufacturing applications as the main line, systematically explaining how to utilize Cimatronit's powerful wireframe, surface modeling, and hybrid modeling functions (combining wireframe and solid capabilities), as well as its outstanding intelligent NC functions, to complete the entire application process from part modeling, mold design to NC machining. The features of this book are: it provides a relatively comprehensive introduction to the commonly used functions in the modeling, drafting, and machining modules of Cimatronit. In the software function introduction, it emphasizes systematicity and focuses on the explanation of basic concepts and methods, enabling readers to gain a systematic understanding of the software functions after learning. At the same time, it selects some examples from practical engineering projects that fully reflect the functional characteristics of the software for part modeling and mold design, introducing the usage techniques of various commonly used functions through these examples. This book is suitable for professionals engaged in mold design and mold NC machining programming, and is also suitable as a training manual for Cimatron mold CAD/CAM applications and teaching materials for CAD/CAM application courses in universities and colleges.
