Gibbs and Associates will highlight GibbsCAM’s high speed machining capabilities, including VoluMill which speeds milling cycles and reduces tool wear. VoluMill is said to maximize material removal rates by generating toolpaths for high feed rates using constant tool loading and choosing the best option for individual pockets, including plunge speed and material removal rates. GibbsCAM’s multitasking machining capabilities will also be demonstrated. The program provides milling and turning functions in a single interface and is said to eliminate multiple setups to improve part quality and production speed.
