CimatronE Reduces Cutting Time by Half for Danish Shop

Cimatron Limited announced today that its integrated CAD/CAM software, CimatronE, will be demonstrated at the booth of reseller NTI CADcenter at the VTM trade show in Denmark, April 1-4, 2014, booth #5107.

CimatronE is used by many Danish manufacturers with great success. Among local customers is the foundry company, Dansk Skalform, a fabricator of small and complex molded thin-walled castings. The shop recently performed a cutting job using CimatronE with the integrated VoluMill ultra-high performance machining technology. The cutting was performed onsite together with tool vendor KJV and NTI CADcenter on the shop's CNC machine.

"CimatronE with VoluMill and the sidemilling tool from KJV gave us a fantastic new setup for efficient roughing," said Peter Dissing, Dansk Skalform's CEO.

"It was amazing to see the amount of chips being cut from the stock in record time. Cutting time was reduced by some 49% with the VoluMill technology and it was even possible to increase the feed rate to 150% without pushing the machine or the cutting tool to its limits."

Dansk Skalform started using CimatronE's new VoluMill at the end of 2013, but Mr. Dissing says that the company has already benefitted from the decision: "We use CimatronE with VoluMill as much as possible when performing rough operations. It sounds efficient, runs effectively, and continues to help us reduce our costs."

CimatronE's VoluMill functionality will be demonstrated at VTM at the booth of NTI CADcenter. CimatronE's other mold design and NC programming capabilities will also be shown, including: parting, electrode, automated drilling, and 2.5-5 axis milling.
