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.
