Fully-Integrated Solid Edge CAM Software
CAMWorks for Solid Edge is a fully embedded Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) solution for Solid Edge. Using CAMWorks for Solid Edge, the CAD and CAM models become one in the same and users can create CNC programs within the familiar Solid Edge interface.
All the CAD and CAM data is stored directly within the Solid Edge part or assembly file. There’s no need to maintain separate CAM files, typically required by stand-alone CAM systems, and the fully-associative toolpaths update automatically to design changes, so you’ll never have to worry about machining an old revision of the part.
Smart Manufacturing Through Automation
CAMWorks for Solid Edge is a feature-based CAM system which uses cutting-edge automatic feature recognition technology to recognize machinable features automatically. Within seconds, machinable features on the Solid Edge model are recognized and added to the CAMWorks Feature Tree. Once the features have been identified, CAMWorks for Solid Edge uses Knowledge-Based Machining to automatically generate the operations and toolpaths for machining using the patented technology database or TechDB™.
The TechDB™ allows users to capture the best practices of their CNC programmers and machinists, into a company owned database, and reuse them automatically. The combination of both automatic feature recognition and knowledge-based machining reduces programming time by as much as 90%, reduces cycle time to increase production, promotes standardization, and improves quality.
