Cimatron NC Programming
Not every shop needs the full mold or die design package some just need CAM that’s fast, accurate, and built for the kind of parts that don’t forgive a bad toolpath. Cimatron NC Programming is that piece on its own: a dedicated CAM system for 2.5 to 5-axis machining, with strategies tuned for molds, dies, plates, electrodes, and discrete precision parts.
Pelf Engineering supplies Cimatron NC Programming for manufacturers who want strong CAM capability without necessarily adopting the full Cimatron design suite.
What Makes It Useful
A CAD environment that doesn't get in the way
Hybrid modeling tools let programmers repair geometry, apply drafts and rounds, or extend surfaces right inside the CAM environment, instead of sending the file back to design.
5-axis strategies that stay controllable
Programmers keep full control over tilt, lead angles, and tool positioning, with dedicated strategies for blades, impellers, blisks, and turbines parts where a generic toolpath simply doesn’t cut it.
Roughing and finishing that are actually tuned for the material being removed
Constant tool load, trochoidal milling, and adaptive strategies keep roughing efficient, while 3- to 5-axis finishing strategies handle everything from general surfaces to micro-milled detail.
Drilling that used to take hours, now takes minutes
Automated hole and stock recognition can cut drilling programming time by a wide margin, which adds up fast on plates with dozens or hundreds of holes.
Core Capabilities
Integrated CAD tools
Wireframe, surface, and solid modelling functions available directly in the CAM workspace, so geometry prep doesn’t require a separate application.
Plate machining and automated drilling
Rough pocketing, profiling, and drilling templates purpose-built for high-speed operations.
Efficient roughing, flawless finishing
A broad set of roughing and finishing strategies, including dedicated options for electrodes and micro-milling.
5-axis programming
Specialized toolpath strategies for complex, multi-axis parts, backed by a large library of proven post-processors.
Simulation and verification
Full machine kinematics, gouge and collision detection, and stock/fixture awareness to catch problems before the machine does.
Why Work With Pelf Engineering
Whether you’re programming molds, dies, or one-off precision components, the right CAM setup makes a measurable difference in both cycle time and scrap rate. Pelf Engineering can help you evaluate Cimatron NC Programming against what you’re using today, with a trial run on your own parts.
