GibbsCAM Solids-Based Options - 1

2.5D Solids, Solid Modeling continued… Machining Pocket machining with support for projected 2D geometry P Contour machining with support for projected 2D geometry P Generate precise (analytic) contouring toolpath with offset arcs at corners P SolidSurfacer ® Option The SolidSurfacer option provides higher-level surface and solid modeling capabilities. Advanced functionality to machine surfaces and solids is also included. Using SolidSurfacer, you can address the most demanding surface and solid modeling and machining requirements for complex mold, tool and die work. Lace Cut Roughing, including single direction, back and forth, user specified angle with constant Z steps, offset Z, variable offset Z, constant number of passes over the entire model and optional automatic periphery cleanup P Lace Cut Finishing, including single direction, back and forth and user specified angle P Clean-up only large ridge areas left by previous lace cut at a different angle P Contour Finishing with constant Z steps or constant ridge height steps (water line machining) P Clean-up only concave fillets left by a previous larger radius tool (corner clean-up/ rest milling) P SOLID IMPORT TOOLPATH SOLID MODELING CREATE BODY SPHERE CUBOID EXTRUDE REVOLVE Cut entire selected areas P Finish top surfaces and clean-up ridge areas left by previous constant Z roughing P Automatic intersection machining following clean-up from previous tools (pencil milling) P Multi-Surface Flow Machining P 2 Curve Flow Machining P SOLID MODELING (CONTINUED) LOFT: 2 CURVES MULTIPLE CURVES CLOSED SWEEP: DRIVE CURVE PLANE ALIGNMENT – NONE DRIVE CURVE PLANE ALIGNMENT – 2D NORMAL DRIVE CURVE PLANE ALIGNMENT – 3D NORMAL GUIDE CURVE FUNCTION GUIDE CURVE MARKER 1 DRIVE CURVE MULTIPLE DRIVE CURVES DRIVE CURVE BLEND SHARP CORNERS SOLIDIFY ADVANCED SOLID MODELING OFFSET/SHELL ROUNDING: SIMPLE ROUND VARIABLE RADIUS CHAMFER BODY UNSTITCH DRAFT SOLID ALIGN SLICE BOOLEANS UNION DIFFERENCE INTERSECT SEPARATE GibbsCAM Solids-Based Options Solids Import, 2.5D Solids, SolidSurfacer® CAM SOLID INITIAL STOCK BODY PART, CONSTRAINT, STOCK OVERRIDE CONTOUR – SURFACES PROJECT 2.5D* PROJECT 3D CONTOUR – SOLIDS TAB POCKET – SURFACES PROJECT 2.5D* PROJECT 3D POCKET – SOLIDS TAB PLUNGE ROUGHING ADVANCED 3D MACHINING FACET BODY MACHINING CUTTING STRATEGIES 3D POCKETING 3D LACE CUT N-CURVE FLOW CURVE PROJECTION SURFACE STEPOVER FLATS CUT STEEP/SHALLOW COMBINATION CAM – SURFACING GEN 3 TOOLPATH FROM SOLIDS DEFINE TOOLPATHS Solids Import Option: Provides initial solids capability allowing solid and surface models to be read and manipulated. Geometry is extracted from the solid/surface for general machining. SIMULATE PROCESS SolidSurfacer ® Option: Provides additional capability to handle complex surface modeling, plunge roughing, multi-surface capabilities and advanced 3D capabilities for 3-axis machining – Ideal for mold cavities, cores, dies and aerospace, medical and automotive components. (2.5D Solids option is required.) ANALYZE PROCESS Gibbs Website: www.GibbsCAM.com – If enrolled in the GibbsCAM Maintenance Program, you can download the latest versions of GibbsCAM software between major upgrades, including interim versions. The site also contains the latest GibbsCAM product information, technical support files, customer success stories, technical articles, training videos and much more.

Specialized tools are provided for the import, repair and automatic solidification of surface data. Using the 2.5D Solids option, CNC programs are created faster, easier and more efficiently than from geometric shapes only. (Solids Import option is required.) *Limited to analytical surfaces Gibbs Maintenance Program – Annual enrollment in the Gibbs Maintenance Program keeps your GibbsCAM software up-to-date, allowing you to take advantage of GibbsCAM’s innovative capabilities as they become available. For more details about this program, contact your local GibbsCAM Reseller. In order to fully take advantage of the benefits of solids technology, a cost-effective suite of solids-based options are available for GibbsCAM. Incrementally structured to add onto the base Milling or Turning modules, these options allow the user to start with basic solids-based functionality and gradually expand to more advanced capabilities while protecting their investment. Combined with GibbsCAM’s intuitive graphical user interface, integrated cut-part rendering and associativity between part geometry, process parameters, and toolpath, these solids-based options provide powerful yet easy-to-use programming capabilities for today’s solid and surface models. Using GibbsCAM’s integrated advanced machining capabilities, ultra-efficient part programs with gouge-free toolpaths are created. At the same time, programming efficiency is significantly enhanced with GibbsCAM’s highly automated multi-tool, multi-surface roughing and finishing, and “material only” machining methods. Reseller Distribution Channel – Local support for customers is provided by a worldwide channel of GibbsCAM Resellers. Solid model-based CAD applications are becoming more and more widely used, resulting in part files in various solid model formats becoming more widely available. Compared to wireframe models, solid and surface models offer a more complete representation. Not only that, but they enable more intuitive modeling and advanced machining capabilities. The GibbsCAM solids-based options include: Customer Support Post Processing GibbsCAM provides the user with a complete suite of the tools necessary to get their job done. This includes modeling capability that supports creating solids from part prints, cleaning up imported solids so they can be machined, to creating models of fixturing. Because this functionality was specifically designed for manufacturing professionals, it is easy to use and appropriate for their specific tasks. SURFACE MODELING Why Include Modeling Functionality?
