RD-Support offers Cimatron courses.

The lenght of each course is different. We offer courses in-house & at customers location. The courses are divided into 2 types; CAD & CAM.

If interested, feel free to contact RD-Support.

CAD courses

Basic CAD Design

2 day course

• 2d & 3D Modeling

• Design of machine vices in assemby mode. Insertion of standard components.

• Drawing the manufacture of the vice.

Quick Splite

1 day course

• Learn how Cimatron quickly splits the workpiece in main pull and side pull directions. The workpiece is split and split surfaces are assessed on the basis of angular analysis and slip directions

• The start of mold construction.

Flat modeling

2 day course

• Requires knowledge of Cimatron.

• The construction of a motorcycle hood via surfaces. The technique of wireframe and surface modeling with C2 / G2 conditions.

• Finishes with creating a solid.

• Cut into solids with surfaces.

Mold Design

2 day course (expandable)

• Must have taken the Quick split course

• The construction of 2 item form-box with side drawers, inserts, inlets, ejectors, cooling ducts. Catalog parts with plates, screens, plugs, etc. are used.

• Drawing with BOM.

Electrode extraction

1 day course (expandable)
