CELERITIVE TECHNOLOGY, INC. IS THE UHPT INDUSTRY LEADER» Machining technology used in VoluMill is the most advanced in the industry

EFFICIENT G-CODE» Minimizes air-cuts and maximizes machine productivity» Toolpath is typically half the size of other UHPT toolpaths» Utilizes 2D and 3D arc-moves with intelligent variable feedrates» Creates CNC-code that is not dependent on advanced

high-speed functionality in your machine’s controller

MORE ACCURATE CONTROL OF STEPOVER AND SPINDLE-LOAD» As the stepover changes and the chip load increases, VoluMill for GibbsCAM automatically adjusts the feedrate. The result is a faster, smoother cut and increased tool life» Other UHPT technologies do not utilize dynamic/variable feedrates, diminishing the benefits

FULL SUPPORT FOR STOCK ONLY AND REST-MACHINING» VoluMill for GibbsCAM supports “Material Only Cutting” for both 2D and 3D parts» Handles a wide range of stock conditions, from simple wireframe to complex solids and previously machined parts

NO PART GEOMETRY MANIPULATION REQUIRED » VoluMill for GibbsCAM does not require "dummy geometry" to generate UHPT toolpath» Directly machines wireframe geometry and solid models “as is”; there is no additional editing

or manipulation required

INTUITIVE» VoluMill for GibbsCAM is easy to learn and use; with little or no additional training needed» Competitive UHPT technologies are more di�cult to use and require specialized training

SEAMLESS INTEGRATION» VoluMill for GibbsCAM is seamlessly integrated into the GibbsCAM interface, so that you will never have to leave the GibbsCAM environment» Like any toolpath generated in GibbsCAM, VoluMill for GibbsCAM is fully associative» Supports Production Milling, Advanced Coordinate System, 2.5D Solids, 3D Mill and rotary

milled/wrapped features

SUPPORTS A WIDE RANGE OF MACHINE TYPES» VoluMill for GibbsCAM supports vertical mills, horizontal mills, mill-turn and multi-task machines (MTM)

UNPARALLELED SERVICE AND SUPPORT» Because VoluMill for GibbsCAM is provided directly by Gibbs and Associates

and GibbsCAM authorized Resellers, you receive the same professional service and support that you have come to expect for all GibbsCAM products

Why VoluMill™ for GibbsCAM®

Is Your Ultra High Performance Toolpath (UHPT) Solution
