CAMBRIO Launches GibbsCAM Version 2022 with Focus on Product Quality, Core Strength
CAMBRIO (Cincinnati, OH) recently announced its new release, GibbsCAM 2022.
Intelligent CAD/CAM Toolpaths Allow Tools to Cut Metal at Impressive Speeds
By implementing intelligent toolpath strategies, one company was able to reduce cycle time for one part from 40 minutes to 10-to-15 minutes by achieving a full depth of cut, increasing feeds and speeds, and normalizing the load on the tool. How low can you go with these solutions?

Automated Multispindle Program Creation Boosts Long-Part Machining Productivity
ESPRIT CAM’s ESPRIT TNG enables offset-aware programming of spindle transfers and bar pulls to help manufacturers drive multichannel CNC machinery. The ‘next generation’ CAM provides an exact digital replica of every facet of the machining environment.
The Rise of Trochoidal Milling: More Accessible Than Ever
Circular machining with low radial engagement and constant feed per tooth extends tool life by minimizing heat and vibration when machining extremely hard materials. CAM and control developers are making it easier for any size shop to add this technique to their capabilities.
ESPRIT CAM and Alma CAM Create Robot Additive DED Programming
The partnership has resulted in a validated workflow that provides end users with dedicated additive toolpath planning and programming, as well as robot programming, simulation, verification, collision detection, and code generation. Engineers can also use the technology to achieve the above functions for subtractive finishing.
