Cimatron’s German Subsidiary to Sell and Support GibbsCAM Machining Solutions
Cimatron Limited announced that its German subsidiary is now selling and supporting the GibbsCAM advanced machining software solutions, marketed in Germany under the name of Virtual Gibbs.
The German subsidiary is the latest Cimatron office to offer the GibbsCAM solutions following the companies’ merger earlier this year. With offices in Ettlingen, Hamm, Ismaning, Cologne, and Nuremberg, Cimatron GmbH has been serving a strong customer base of thousands of German tool makers and manufacturers for over 10 years.
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.
"Tapping into the resources and knowledge offered by Cimatron GmbH provides a quick and reliable route for expanding the GibbsCAM global distribution network," said Robb Weinstein, Gibbs’s and Associates’ Senior Vice President of Sales and Strategic Planning. "Cimatron GmbH will be working with the GibbsCAM Resellers already established in the territory to further capitalize on potential synergies."
“The GibbsCAM software will enable us to better respond to the demand for manufacturing solutions in the German market” said Dirk Dombert, Cimatron GmbH’s General Manager. “We look forward to offering such a highly reputable solution to complement the rest of the Cimatron product suite.”
