  • What is Cimatron?

    Since 1982, Cimatron® has provided toolmakers with an end-to-end solution for designing and manufacturing tools including molds, dies, and electrodes, as well as programming any CNC and EDM machine for molds, dies, plates, and discrete manufacturing. While Cimatron is at its most powerful when used as a fully-integrated system, it also provides standalone solutions for faster quoting, tool design, electrode creation, and NC programming.

    With Cimatron software, you get one solution with a single, intuitive, easy-to-use interface for your entire workflow—from quoting, to design, to manufacturing.
