Gibbs and Associates (Moorpark, CA), now a Cimatron company, announced that GibbsCAM has been certified for Autodesk Inventor 2009 under the Autodesk Inventor Certified Applications Program.
GibbsCAM is able to directly read in native Autodesk Inventor model files for process planning and toolpath generation. The Inventor-to-GibbsCAM add-in allows Autodesk Inventor models to be directly transferred from within Autodesk Inventor to GibbsCAM. Updates to either part geometry or process parameters are easily accommodated by GibbsCAM’s full associativity across geometry, process, and toolpath.
GibbsCAM’s ease-of-use allows users to take advantage of its capabilities — from minimizing how long it takes to learn how to use the software, to addressing day-to-day manufacturing engineering tasks sing its intuitive capabilities.
The current GibbsCAM product line supports 2- through 5-axis milling, turning, mill/turning, multi-task simultaneous machining and wire-EDM. GibbsCAM also provides fully integrated manufacturing modeling capabilities that include 2D, 2.5D, 3D wireframe, surface, and solid modeling. GibbsCAM’s data exchange capabilities are able to access the broadest range of native and industry standard CAD data formats.
