Alibre, Inc. Releases Alibre CAM 2.0

Official Press Release


Richardson, TX - January 19, 2010 - Today Alibre, Inc., the value leader in the 3D CAD/CAM market, announced the latest release of Alibre CAM. Alibre CAM is Alibre's fully integrated, parametric machining solution for Alibre Design CAD software. It offers 2.5, 3, 4, and indexed 5 axis tool path creation and g-code output to over 160 popular CNC machine brands.

Alibre CAM 2.0, developed in conjunction with technology partner MecSoft Corporation, delivers substantially extended functionality over previous versions. A new user interface, streamlined workflows, higher performance, and new machining operations further enhance Alibre's value-leader position in the market.

"Alibre CAM 2.0 represents nearly a year of dedication to listening to and implementing customer feedback. Ultimately, the customer is all that matters. The reaction we’ve gotten so far from many users about the new version is that it represents the rapid maturation of our CAM offering. Considering that the price point starts at $0 and maxes out at $4000, when you look at features and prices of other software, there is no comparison," says Max Freeman, VP of Marketing at Alibre.

Alibre CAM is based on MecSoft's VisualMILL line, developed over a 13-year period and used by thousands of companies worldwide, including Exxon, Sanyo, GM, Intel, and many others. With a full integration into Alibre Design, customers are afforded a complete parametric CAD/CAM solution for a price that cannot be beat.

Anyone wishing to obtain a trial of Alibre Design 12.1 and Alibre CAM 2.0 or wanting to learn about the new features can visit www.alibre.com.
