CAM Software Update The latest GibbsCAM brings new capabilities for optimizing ma- chining parts within SolidWorks 2012. A SolidWorks certified CAM product, this updated CAM system offers seamless integra- tion with SolidWorks, including the ability to read and preserve features from SolidWorks files,
and the ability to automatically update machining processes when a change is made to a SolidWorks file/solid. In addition, software now has a capability called Hole Manger that integrates with the SolidWorks Hole Wizard to automatically read, recognize, and machine holes. Colors created in SolidWorks also are read and pre- served by the system for use in the programming process.

Expanded Range of Hydraulic Oil Reservoirs and Fuel Tanks The IFH Group specializes in the use of aluminized steel in hydraulic oil res- ervoirs and fuel tanks for off-road and specialty vehicles used in agricultural, construction, utility and a range of other rugged off-highway applications.
It also makes its reservoirs and tanks in a range of other materials. But aluminized steel—sheet steel hot-dip coated on both sides with an aluminum-silicon alloy—is designed to economically solve the contamination problems inherent in uncoated steels by combining the corrosion resistance of aluminum with the structural strength of steel. Each reservoir and tank is customized to meet customer designs and applications and is available in capacities from 1 to more than 300 gallons. The IFH Group, Inc. Ph: 800-435-7003
