The GibbsCAM® 5-Axis option was specifically developed by Gibbs and Associates to provide a powerful way to program 5-axis CNC machine tools while being consistent with GibbsCAM's commitment to ease-of-use. The new 5-axis functionality is seamlessly integrated into GibbsCAM allowing the user to access the entire GibbsCAM environment, providing unparalleled programming flexibility and support. When the 5-Axis option is integrated with the GibbsCAM MTM configuration the resulting combination is capable of supporting advanced multi-task machining systems with live tooling mounted in an articulated head. With its breadth of capability and its ease of use, the GibbsCAM 5-Axis option is ideal for your 5-axis programming needs.

Using a variety of different cutting styles, 5-axis toolpath can be created on any number of trimmed or untrimmed surfaces. The 5-Axis option's toolpath generation functionality works directly from the part model's surfaces resulting in a superior surface finish. The toolpath generation automatically handles model and geometric imperfections. For example, the surfaces' UV lines do not need to be oriented in any special direction prior to creating toolpath offering full flexibility with surfaces being machined. Full support for all standard 4- and 5-axis tool types (ball, flat, bull, conical, and lollipop) is provided with collision checking of the tool tip, tool shaft and holder.

Comprehensive collision checking is supported ensuring milling of sharp corners, avoidance of fixtures and clamps, while producing compact toolpath. Each position of the tool is automatically calculated to ensure that the tool and holder do not collide with the part. A variety of different avoidance strategies are available to address potential collision situations.

GibbsCAM 5-Axis users can create CNC G-code a number of different ways. For new 5-Axis users, Gibbs posts provide what-you-see-is-what-you machine posted output. For users with established posting solutions based on APT-CL, APT-CL output can be generated. ProAXYZ 5 axis drivers are also fully compatible with the GibbsCAM 5-Axis option which allows ProAXYZ 5as customers to use their existing post processors. In addition, 5-axis posting solutions from Camplete can also be used.

The Losma Air Filtration Range is one of the most complete on the market today. It is made up of three product lines. For the air cleaning they propose beyond 13 models of mist collectors in the versions turbine, single centrifuge and double centrifuge. All the models are ready for being arranged with a range width of modules of pre and after-filtration therefore to resolve in specific way any type of problem.

Their mist collectors can be directly installed on the machine tools. They remove the polluting from the source, and can easy be moved, and used again on other machines or switched off in case they are not used.

Ten models to give the perfect response to every requirement. Three types of rotor technology: turbine, single and double centrifuge. Throughput from 800 to 2800m³/h to provide the right solution for everything from small lathes to huge machining centres.

The ASPIROFILTER series, sold in thousands all over the world, guarantees robust solidity. Filtration efficiency levels of over 99% can be achieved in combination with other modular pre- and post-filtration units.

Dry lubricant and release agent - aerosol

Dry lubricant and release agent. ODC free. Coats and lubricates with a clean, tough, semi-transparent shield. Eliminates sticking, binding, squeaking. Apply to metal, wood, plastic, glass, rubber -- anywhere sticking is a problem. Telcon resists temperatures to 500ºF, repels water and oil, and will not collect dust or dirt. Telcon makes things work smoothly. No noticeable transfer from mold to part; coatable. Contains no silicones.

Features:

• High-tech formula
• Contains Teflon®-like active ingredient
• Dry film formula
• Adheres extremely well and maintains viscosity for maximum protection
• Superior lubrication, reduces friction and wear. Helps machine parts run efficiently for long service life.
• Dries quickly. Will not run off. Resists oil, water, dirt, and dust.
• Speeds molding or pressing cycle
• Reduces rejects
• Extends mold life
• Eliminates post-finishing preparation
• Eliminates build-up problems
• Handy, efficient aerosol packaging for user who does not have a work load requiring the heavier solids formulation of bulk packaging.

Applications:

As a release agent, use for:

• epoxies
• phenolics
• polyurethanes
• rubber
