In older versions, automating electrode creation required significant setup. In 2026, the system uses machine learning to analyze burn areas and suggest the optimal electrode geometry, including extension sizes and holder types, based on your shop’s specific library.
He moved to the NC setup. He loaded his tools and defined the fixtures. Here was where the anxiety usually set in. He needed to reach deep into a pocket with a long, skinny cutter, and the fixture clamps were dangerously close.
Managing large mold assemblies is easier with faster tools for finding and inserting standard components. cimatron 2026 better
is now smarter, automatically cutting blanks based on holder shapes to reduce error and accelerate design while ensuring compliance with company standards. Additionally, an Ejector Lock Design Automation feature detects ejectors that need to be locked and modifies the ejector head accordingly, providing four lock types for ejectors.
Cimatron 2026 introduces a new licensing system that is more flexible and easier to administer. It offers a variety of options including key-based activation and the ability to borrow licenses for offline work, making it adaptable to various business models. Importantly, the software can be installed alongside an existing copy of Cimatron 2025 on the same machine, allowing for a smooth and risk-free transition period.

Cimatron 2026 offers better control over the entire manufacturing process. The introduction of Virtual Volume allows users to limit a cooling circuit to a specific portion of a mold, intelligently avoiding areas that don't need cooling. Users can now also specify the electrode burning stage directly within the NC-Setup. All specified TP-folders and machining parameters are then automatically applied for electrode creation, reducing the risk of human error.
Cimatron 2026 is perfectly aligned with several key industry trends, including: Managing large mold assemblies is easier with faster
"Well," Elias said, a small smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. "I guess I can go home early today."
