Cimatron Expands Offering in China with GibbsCAM Machining Solutions
Cimatron Limited is expanding the product portfolio offered to the Chinese market.
Cimatron, which already has a significant presence in China, is now adding GibbsCAM software to the product line offered to toolmakers and manufacturers in the region.
GibbsCAM solutions provide a broad range of CNC programming capabilities for milling, turning, mill-turn, rotary milling, tombstone-fixtured, wire-EDM, and multi-turret/multi-spindle machining. Modeling functionality tuned specifically for manufacturing supports the creation and manipulation of wireframe, surface, and solid geometries.
Featuring an intuitive user interface, built-in associativity, and simulation capabilities, GibbsCAM empowers manufacturers to increase productivity and elevate responsiveness to customer requirements and design changes.
GibbsCAM supports control and machine tools from leading vendors including GE Fanuc, Infimatic, Siemens, Doosan Infracore, Haas, Index, MAG Fadal, Matsuura, Mazak, Mitsubishi, Mori Seiki, Nakamura Tome, and Tornos.
With headquarters in Beijing and additional offices in Chengdu, Fujian, Wuhan, Guangzhou, and Wuxi, Cimatron’s subsidiary in China has been expanding in support of a growing customer base and accelerating demand. In addition to its direct sales and support personnel, the company serves the market through over twenty independent dealers and nearly 60 training centers. The GibbsCAM product line will also continue to be available through Forida, GibbsCAM’s reseller in Hong Kong.
"Given its strong market presence and remarkable industry expertise, Cimatron’s subsidiary in China is the perfect match for expanding GibbsCAM’s reach into this high growth region," said Robb Weinstein, Gibbs and Associates’ Senior Vice President of Sales and Strategic Planning.
“GibbsCAM’s reputation in production and especially in multi-task machining is growing very quickly in China and the rest of Asia Pacific,” said Lang Yan, Cimatron’s General Manager of Greater China. “We are extremely excited to be able to serve the Chinese market with GibbsCAM along with the rest of the Cimatron product line.”
