Use the CAMWorks machining tree and commands at the click of a button and generate toolpaths without leaving the design environmentĬAMWorks provides users with the ability to work with multiple platforms including its own integrated CAD/CAM platform:ĬAMWorks was the first fully integrated computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) solution designed exclusively to operate in SOLIDWORKS® and the first to offer knowledge-based, feature recognition, and associative machining capabilities within SOLIDWORKS.ĬAMWorks uses the same SOLIDWORKS geometry to generate toolpaths to ensure the part you machine is the same part you’ve modeled. Work with the same familiar user-interface ensuring a short learning curve. Use a single file for storing CAD and CAM data drastically reducing file management. Eliminate time-consuming file transfers using standard file formats such as IGES and STEP. Maintain associativity between the design model and the toolpaths ensuring that the latest changes in the design reflect in the toolpath. CAMWorks offers true associative machining automatically accommodating changes to the part model, which eliminates time consuming CAM system rework due to design updates.īeing integrated into the design environment, CAMWorks allows a user to: CAMWorks 3 Axis Milling allows users to program smarter using seamless integration within the design environment. An integrated CAD/CAM environment is a critical factor in helping to ensure the users are able to benefit from solids-based, fully associative CNC machining, whether it's with native solid models or neutral file formats like IGES, STEP, etc. Companies need to ensure that their design and manufacturing teams are working closely with each other, as well as with their customers.
Time-to-market is critical with today’s fierce competition. In this third discussion on CAMWorks, the spotlight fundamental is Toolpath Associativity. Cycles developed for speed, accuracy, and efficient memory usage that also ensure parts of any kind can be cut quickly and accurately with high quality toolpath
Full toolpath associativity to solid modelsĥ.
CAMWorks boasts the fastest programming capability around for CNC milling and Turning equipment. CAMWorks automation and time savings is built on a group of core fundamentals:ģ.
