GibbsCAM 2016
continues to build on the power of the revolutionary UKM technology introduced in GibbsCAM 2015. Its powerful suite of enhancements gives users the flexibility they want along with the control they need. Improvements, which range from milling and turning functionality, to 5-axis milling and multi-axis turning deliver increased efficiency, programming speed, visualization and accuracy.
MILLING
Thread Milling
Full Profile Threadmill
is a new tool type that allows for multiple teeth and provides support for threadforms and tapered-angle tools
Support for tapered threads
using single and multi-point thread tools (including NPT and BSPT types)
Allows for multiple passes
and spring passes providing optimal thread finish
Depth of thread-milled holes
is associated with hole geometry definition
Hole processes now include drilling
and threading routines that can be combined into a single process list
Improved visualization
when creating both custom and standard thread cutting tools
Multiple Contour Control
Select multiple contours
for a single operation
Define cutting side
and direction for individual contours in a group
VoluMILL (Wireframe and Solids)
Newly integrated Technology Expert
calculates optimal speeds and feeds for VoluMill toolpaths
Automatic calculation
of spiral toolpaths in large pockets
Open face milling calculations
reduce cutting time by up to 60%
Optimized cutting motion
in slots and corners further reduces cutting time and tool wear
5-AXIS MILLING
New pattern type, Flowline
, creates U or V aligned toolpath on a single surface without selecting additional bounding geometry
Extend/Trim now allows Side Extensions
in addition to Tangential when extending or trimming surface based toolpaths
New Mirror Toolpath
function available for Surface, Triangle Mesh, Swarf Machining and Wireframe strategies
New function, Follow Surface Topology
, available in Swarf Machining when using multiple slices that allows for stripe milling, which follows the actual curvature of the surfaces, improving toolpath for convex shapes such as gear flanks and pressure sides of impeller blades
Multi-axis machining
now allows multiple floor faces to be selected as the floor surface definition
5-Axis Drilling improvements
allow users to specify direct or stepped retract moves between holes when using an incremental clearance area
A new Gouge strategy, Along tool plane
, avoids collisions by retracting along a plane normal to the tool axis while retaining tool orientation and height
Porting option includes new Roll over edge
function to extend the toolpath starting cuts and new
Auto choices
for automatic calculation of radius and/or direction of the Connection cylinder
5-Axis Flowline
5-Axis Side Extension
TURNING, MILL-TURN, and
MULTI-TASK MACHINING (MTM)
Improved process layouts
for quicker programming
Horizontal view formatting
of MTM Sync Manager for increased visibility and customization
Turning tools
are now supported in the Adveon Tooling Library Plug-in
Oriented Turning
Ability to use a single tool at multiple B orientations
Re-orient a toolgroup
for use on a different spindle
Turn at arbitrary orientations
on machines with redundant rotary axes
Rotation setting available
for all turning processes
Full support for Flash Tooling
(multiple orientation turning tools)
DATA EXCHANGE
ACIS/SAT read/write option is now available free of charge for all licenses that include the 2.5D Solids option
New option for importing UGS/NX *.prt models using Spatial
Spatial options for NX, CATIA, and STEP now import Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) data
