CIMATRON RELEASES NEW QUICKNC: PREVIEW TECHNOLOGY SAVES OVER 75% IN PROCESS PLANNING TIME!


Givat Shmuel, Israel, April 15, 2002 - Cimatron Ltd., (NASDAQ: CIMT) a leading developer of CAD/CAM solutions for the tooling industry, today announced the release of QuickNC, the company's new NC solution for the tooling industry.

QuickNC's revolutionary preview technology saves over 75% in process planning time. When compared to today's conventional NC software, Cimatron's QuickNC outranks the competition in NC process planning efficiency. The software's short trial & error cycle allows NC operators to calculate toolpaths just once, minimizing the need for a simulator. This is a result of final cutting strategy decisions made before actual toolpath calculation, while intelligent decision-making is based on graphical in-process feedback. The software enables live communication via the Internet, where both parties can operate and discuss the full NC process in real-time.

Coupled with absolute reliability, machining efficiency and top-level surface quality, QuickNC provides rapid toolpath calculation time, knowledge of stock remaining, and adaptive feed control. The software is intuitive and simple, with only a minimum number of required parameters needed to define the NC process, and full training is easily completed in a few short hours.

Nadav Katz, Executive VP Marketing at Cimatron, comments "QuickNC offers cutting-edge NC technology to meet the demands of every toolmaker in the industry. We aim to change the way NC operators work and with QuickNC, we have proven that we can achieve this goal," he added.
