"A customer supplied us with an IGES file of surfaces from AutoCAD Mechanical Desktop, and Gibbs translated it without a catch. Aesthetics were very important since this customer was going to leave his part as machined, with little or no polishing. GibbsCAM allowed us to try different stepovers, cut methods and cut directions with ease. We cut the part immediately for the customer, even without dry running, and it worked great. I am very impressed with the powerful capabilities, the ease of use, the realistic rendering, and the short learning period that GibbsCAM provides."
- Rick Denny, Blue Chip Engineering, Ramsey, MN

Midwest CAM Solutions, Inc. has created more effective tools for assisting customers in the education and implementation process of GibbsCAM software:

Basic Mill & Advanced Mill Video Training Kits!

Our Basic (3-Axis) Milling Series consists of 20-hours of in-depth training. Structured around our quarterly technical school courses, we have integrated this knowledge onto VHS format. This instructional kit covers every step of the GibbsCAM interface, from installation and set-up, through drawing, machining, sweeping, engraving, posting and more. Training kits include a detailed manual of instructional information and practice prints, tool crib library of 800+ processes, free unlimited technical support and a 30-day money-back guarantee.

The video format has proven to be a great asset for many of Midwest CAM’s customers and continues to be a helpful tool for their review and assistance. Here is what some of our customers have stated:

“I’m totally enjoying the films. I see what you mean when you say they are very thorough. These videos really helped me to learn more efficiently and continue to be great support. I don’t know how you could sell the software without them!” - Lodge Machine

“I like your videos. They’re easy to use, well explained and I can easily go back and review. In a class format, I would not have been able to do so. I love the way you have divided them into independent and useable categories.” - Do-Rite Machining

Midwest CAM Solutions, Inc. has also created a 15-hour video training kit for supporting the GibbsCAM Advanced Milling option. *Create and Understand Coordinate Systems, 4&5-Axis Position Machining, Multi-Sided Part Programming, Z-Plainer Milling, Solids Import Option (Geometry Extraction from Models, Auto-Depth Loading, Creating CS Planes from Solids), and much more.

“The advanced mill video series from Midwest CAM Solutions, Inc is an important tool for expanding a GibbsCAM programmer's knowledge. The example files are clear and definitive. The pace of the lessons are suitable for beginning and experienced programmers alike. Learning the capabilities of the software is an important step to getting the maximum value from your investment.” - Remmele Engineering – Plant #60
