Introduction to Cimatron Micro Milling Advantages

Shrinking Dimensions, Growing Expectations
Today, you're either facing the challenges of micro milling - or watching as the competition does so. As margins, part and mold dimensions shrink - and client expectations grow - only one vendor offers the powerful NC capabilities needed to handle complex micro milling geometry. Only Cimatron.

The Pioneer of Micro Milling Solutions

 The scaling of jobs to the micro level is far from simple. To achieve the surface quality and machining tolerance required to mill micro-components, innovative new techniques and tools were required. 

 To meet this challenge, Cimatron leveraged two decades of toolmaking expertise, cooperation with international scientific institutions and leading machining vendors, and a world-class Research and Development team.

  The result: a unique algorithm and corresponding set of NC tools that enable effective scaling of jobs to the micro environment - while continuing to ensure the superior accuracy and surface quality your customers expect – and that you've come to expect from Cimatron.

 Optimized Milling Strategy and Direct Surface Milling

  To eliminate the risk of tool breakage, reducing machining time and elongate tool life, CimatronE constantly and automatically maintains updated knowledge of remaining stock even at micro-component levels. CimatronE Micro Milling also features integral NC strategies that support ramp or helical plunging - maintaining smooth and continuous cutter entry. The system also supports advanced high-speed cutting (HSC) strategies, ensuring homogeneous tool paths.

  Precise Geometric Accuracy and Repair
With a robust data interface, automatic fixing routines and direct interfaces to leading development systems - such as Catia, Unigraphics and ProEngineer - Cimatron ensures that quality is not lost in data import. When geometry problems are encountered such as gaps, overlaps and smoothness between surfaces, Cimatron features built-in design-for-manufacturing geometry repair functions that can use tolerance down to 0.01 micron

  Lowering Dependence on EDM
By bringing tough micro milling into the mainstream of production, CimatronE lowers dependence on high-overhead EDM. Providing high accuracy, 5-axis direct surface milling capabilities, Cimatron helps mold makers deliver superior results - faster, and more cost-effectively.
