The predictions of an event generator, HIPSE (Heavy-Ion Phase-Space Exploration), dedi- cated to the description of nuclear collisions in the intermediate energy range, are compared with experimental data collected by the INDRA and INDRA-ALADIN collaborations. Spe- cial emphasis is put on the kinematical characteristics of fragments and light particles at all impact parameters for the system Xe+Sn between 25 and 80 MeV/u.
