2. offers Part Preview for ease of placement;
3. enables 3rd Party on-machine labeling compatibility;
4. is fully compatible with the Router-CIM’s Touch-N-Print system; and
5. allows multiple output file types such as PDF, JPG and GIF.

“Looking at your competition and at the size, scale and volume that we produce, no other stand-alone CAM software comes close to being as efficient as Router-CIM!” Garison Miseje, CNC programming manager for Czarnowski, a full-service exhibit and event marketing company, says.

In addition to enhanced labeling Router-CIM 2018 features and enhancements include:

• Multi-Level Pocketing – The upgraded multi-level pocketing will now allow for quicker material removal in a multiple depth pocket feature. Quicker removal, quicker cycle times.
• DOIT Editor Speed Improvements – Defining Knowledge to Layer associations has never been easier, or faster! With a color coded guide, instant association updates, Smart wildcard capability and the new layer finding feature of the DOIT Editor let you configure Router-CIM Automation Suite the way you want to.
• New NCVAR Interface – The simplified NC Variable interface lets you customize the features of Router-CIM Automation Suite that are most important to you. Simple Add, Edit and Delete tools let you take advantage of all the power in the Router-CIM Automation Suite advanced programming features.
• Upgrades to Reporting – The Router-CIM Automation Suite reporting allows for cycle time adjustments that can now be dialed in on a per-machine basis. Get accurate results on cycle times, tool usage and acceleration/deceleration that will give you the information you need to control your CNC production cells.

For 30 years CIM-Tech has been offering CAD/CAM software for CNC machines. Router-CIM 2018 users will still enjoy all features of the 2017 version including the most used and acclaimed such as:

• Tool paths created and saved inside AutoCAD with all AutoCAD commands on the tool paths. No need to DXF out or save drawings to an older version of AutoCAD;
• All tool paths stored on separate layers, so the DWG contains both design and manufacturing data;
• Only one system to learn and use; combined design and manufacturing makes for a reduced learning curve
• Parametric macros included, and you do not need to be a VB programmer to write them. Over 40 MDF door macros and 20 millwork macros are included;
• Router-CIM post processors available for virtually all machine controllers–supporting the most complex machinery!
• Powerful advanced nesting features that are only available in Router-CIM;
• Custom written software can reduce the number of steps between design and manufacturing;
• Multiple data sources and types: DWG, DXF, macros, 3D solids, surfaces, ellipses, splines, text.

About CIM-Tech.com Inc.

Established in 1986, the founders of CIM-TECH realized that a CNC machine was only as good as your ability to program it. Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) was needed to bridge the gap between CAD and CAM. CIM provides for a seamless solution with a common interface for design and manufacturing. From this basic concept a new company was created.
