![]() ![]() CAMWorks for Solid Edge is embedded and fully integrated into Solid Edge. ![]() Three distinct factors stood out for me during my initial analysis of the product:ġ. Since most CAM packages can easily handle this type of manufacturing, I focused on what made CAMWorks unique, and how it worked with Solid Edge. The first release of CAMWorks for Solid Edge was limited to 2.5 and 3 Axis Milling and Turning. At my company’s request, I put aside my skepticism and started to find out what I could about this new offering. Being a long time NX CAM user, I was a little surprised that Solid Edge would partner with another CAM package, especially one so closely linked to another CAD package. What I had always considered a competitive product was now being offered as an add-on to Solid Edge. No other integrated CAM system on the market offers more capabilities or faster return on investment to Solid Edge users than CAMWorks for Solid Edge.Last year at Solid Edge University (SEU2013) I was introduced to CAMWorks from Geometric. The technology in CAMWorks for Solid Edge can dramatically increase your production using your existing machines and workforce. CAMWorks Virtual machine virtually simulates all of components of a CNC machine, the fixture or work holding devices and the tools and tool holders, along with the finished part model and raw material or stock used for machining. CAMWorks Virtual Machine performs true G-code simulation to virtually prove-out CNC programs, avoid costly collisions and dramatically reduce setup time. ![]() Using PrimeTurning™, speeds and feeds can be increased by 2 to 3 times while insert life increases by 400%. To dramatically reduce cycle time for turning operations, PrimeTurning™ by Sandvik Coromant is also available for CAMWorks for Solid Edge. CAMWorks VoluMill is an ultra, high-speed rough milling technology that can reduce cycle time by 80% or more and extend tool life by as much as 400%. CAMWorks for Solid Edge offers state-of-the-art technology to optimize CNC programs and virtually prove-out CNC programs to reduce setup time. ![]()
