A 2.5D solid is a solid that can be cut with a series
of 2D toolpaths at different Z levels. As the mechanical design industry is moving more and more to solids-based CAD solutions, they are providing these solid design models to their manufacturers. Gibbs and Associates’ New 2.5D Solids is the right answer for manufacturers who are designing in solids model-based CAD applications or who are receiving solid CAD parts from their customers. GibbsCAM’s 2.5D Solids’ production ready capability handles programming parts with 2.5D solids geometry. Starting with the Profiler, a robust interactive feature-based selection tool, and expanded face selection capabilities to recognize aspects of 2.5D geometry with powerful feature-based selection tools. GibbsCAM's ease-of-use has been enhanced to efficiently interact with 2.5D parts. The GibbsCAM 2.5D Solids Module is available for Milling, Milling & Turning (Mill/Turn) and as an add-on module to existing GibbsCAM software seats. GibbsCAM 2.5D Solids is cost effective and priced well below full 3D solids-based systems. A 2.5D solid model allows the different Z slices to be different 2D shapes but all slices most be 2D shapes.

GibbsCAM
2.5D Solids provides powerful CNC programming capability to
Production Machining users who are manufacturing 2.5D parts. What
is a 2.5D Solid Model/Part? 
A
powerful automatic feature recognition capability has been incorporated
into GibbsCAM and integrated with the Hole Wizard, streamlining
the specification and generation of hole-making processes. Powerful
tools are also provided to allow users to repair imported CAD geometry.
The new option also introduces advanced 2.5D milling, turning, mill/turn,
and multi-task machining functionality, such as the ability to interactively
machine solids directly.
