Among the multiple CAM ad-
ditions within GibbsCAM 2022, a number of usability enhancements have been included such as automated multi-shape predrilling, and extended control for start / end points of profil- ing toolpaths.
5-axis enhancements include a new rotary machining strategy to cut parts with cylindrical or conical floors such as feed screws or augers. Advanced control of the tool includes off-centerline roughing, and front or back engagement of the tool point with automatic corner offset. New 5-axis deburring enhancements include the ability to generate multiple cuts to approximate a chamfer or fillet on an edge beyond traditional edge breaks. It is also possible to use cylindrical or
conical tools for chamfering by select- ing a specific contact point to keep a straight tool section. Toolpath quality is also improved for 5-axis Geodesic operations. Other 5-axis updates in- clude automatic tilting for collision avoidance for arc leads, the ability to select automatic tilt limits or set a fixed tilt angle relative to a selected surface normal.
