【求助】我同事做模具设计，请问选择IT ? E4 ? E5 ? 哪一种？

我帮同事安装CIMTRON，不知道模具设计需要安装IT/E4/E5哪一种？
另外，我同事原来使用CIMTRON8.0，不知道最新版是多少版？与老版本在使用上区别有多大？请求各位帮助一下，谢谢

e5

模具设计为什么不用UG或PROE呢? 不是因为他们高档, 而是因为他们方便.

  
老版主,你可能对E版本不太了解, E的快速分模,快速电极,快速比较和模具设计功能是很强大的.  
  
我不能评论其他软件,但美国CimaData公司的付总可是有很好的评价:
  
Mold Design is an intelligent, parametric, associative, easy to use, solids-based system that includes support for either single, multi-cavity or family molds. Either Cimatron E models or other design files can be accepted in Mold Design. A user can update work if a design change occurs by using the Cimatron E Quick Compare function. A range of mold components such as plates, guide pins, leader pins, screws, ejectors, spacers and cooling channels can be selected from a catalog.  
  
The Quick Split function automatically separates a model into the core, cavity, inserts and slides. The split can be accomplished inside of the mold itself, as compared to performing the split on a separate part. A parting or split line can be established on either a surface or solid model. A user need only select the split command and the parting line is immediately created.  
  
Quick Electrode helps by automating the electrode creation and drawing processes, generating customizable electrode reports, providing seamless integration to NC and generating automatic programming for an EDM machine. The electrode process guide can assist a user in selecting the electrode area, creating a coordinate system, extracting the electrode surfaces and developing extension surfaces. The use of advanced manufacturing modeling products, such as those described above for mold design, can assist mold makers in this tedious and demanding task. The job is being made easier. Time reductions of 80 percent or so are often obtained by use of such products.  
  
   
  

老版主。疙瘩论坛咋上不了的？

模架设计部分,由于我们在中国推广的少,大家的认识就少,E的Mold Desin也很好的,在欧洲用的较多.
