GibbsCAM GO Milling Options

Advanced CS

  • Multiple coordinate systems for modeling and 4- and 5-axis rotary positioning

CutData

  • Over 71,000 machining recommendations for feeds and speeds for use with Material Database.

VoluMill Wireframe

  • Adds powerful high speed roughing functionality and controlled material removal rate for GibbsCAM Milling.

VoluMill Solids

  • Adds powerful high speed roughing functionality and controlled material removal rate for machining solid models.

Radial Milling

  • 4-Axis simultaneously drives one rotary axis(A, B, or C) with X,Y, and/or Z. Supports Y-axis off- center milling for radial prismatic parts defined by solid models or 3D geometry.

Solid Surfacer

  • Create and machine 3-axis solid and surface part models. Import Parasolid and IGES CAD files with ability to repair and modify. Generate automated roughing and finishing cycles with Gouge-free toolpaths.

2,5D Solids

  • Directly create or import, edit and machine 2.5D solid parts. Includes automated feature recognition for holes. High-quality toolpath maintains analytic elements.

Machine Simulation

  • Model machine tool and simulate machine tool motions to verify setup and all milling programs.

Polar & Cylindrical Interpolation

  • Simultaneously drive one rotary axis (A, B, or C), with X. Includesthe ability to wrap a geometry shape around a cylinder via rotary axis interpolation, keeping the tool on Y0, and rotary face milling for mill-turn machines. Supports Polar (mill-turn) and Cylindrical (mill or mill-turn) interpolation functions for controls with these functions.

Interface Package

  • Parasolid, ACIS/SAT, STEP und VDA-Import
  • Import solid model designs from Parasolid and IGES format CAD files with ability to machine with mill functionality. Also includes the direct read of SolidWorks and Solid Edge model files.

Utility Operations

  • Supports single flow operations (multiple spindles,milling and turning utility operations,nonstandard axes[i.e.a quill or W-axis],robot,move tool group,pallet changer, bar feeder,parts catcher, steady rest,tailstock).

Basic Milling

  • 2.5D Wireframe Milling
  • Hole-Making Sub-Routines
  • Fully associative toolpaths
  • Cleanup Functionality
  • IGES-,DXF-Read/Write und DWG-Read
  • Toolpath Visualization and Verification
  • NC-data transfer to machine via RS232
  • Contouring,pocketing, thread and face milling, spiral creation, drilling,tapping,and boring are standard CNC with GibbsCAM GO Milling
