GibbsCAM Post Processors Released for Mori Seiki NZ Series
 MOORPARK, CA,
Sep 3, 2008 – Gibbs and Associates, a Cimatron Limited company,
developer of GibbsCAM software for programming CNC machine tools,
announced today the release of GibbsCAM post processors developed
for Mori Seiki’s NZ series of machine tools. GibbsCAM's posted
output effectively supports the advanced capabilities of these
multi-tasking machine tools, because of a collaborative effort with
Mori Seiki. As competitive pressures grow, so does the market demand
for high-efficiency mass production machine tools like the Mori
Seiki NZ line which can dramatically reduce machining time.
“As the complexity of today’s advanced machine tools increases,
sophisticated post processors are required to program them
effectively,” explains Bill Gibbs, founder and CEO of Gibbs and
Associates. “Working directly with Mori Seiki engineers, we were
able to acquire the expertise needed to develop and validate these
post processors for their NZ Series.”
The Mori Seiki NZ series of machine tools are ideally suited for
mass-production machining. The NZ series machines can be configured
with up to three turrets, all using Mori Seiki’s BMT (Built-in Motor
Turret) technology. By placing the motor inside the turret, heat
generation and vibration are kept to a minimum and transmission
efficiency is improved. Cutting performance, speed and precision are
also significantly increased. The new NZ Series of multi-axes
machines offers not only turning, but also excellent milling with
the Y-axis. With the longest Y-axis stroke in its class, it achieves
high-precision, high efficiency machining. In addition to developing
post processors for the Mori Seiki NZ series line, GibbsCAM post
processors are also available for Mori Seiki's NMV series of 5-Axis
machine tools.
