CAMWorks Virtual Machine for Solid Edge

CAMWorks Virtual Machine uses the latest technology to perform true G-code machine simulation directly from the G-code used for the CNC machine. We are the first CAM software to bring true G-code machine simulation directly integrated within the CNC programming environment. Unlike other CAM systems that use cutter location (CL) data for machine simulation, CAMWorks Virtual Machine uses the actual G-code to ensure precision and accuracy.

Reduce Shop Floor Setup Time

With CAMWorks Virtual Machine, dry-runs for program validations are eliminated and setup time is dramatically reduced. Once the program has been simulated directly from the G-code, it is ready to run on the machine.

Full Collision Detection and Avoidance technology provides the ability to thoroughly check G-code programs for accuracy and avoid costly machine collisions and programming errors, ultimately reducing scrap and improving overall quality. CAMWorks Virtual Machine will help you make a great part the first time and every time!

Seamless Integration with CAMWorks means that with CAMWorks Virtual Machine, the setup time required to use third-party verification packages is eliminated and true G-code verification happens seamlessly.

Multi-Tasking and Mill-Turn Support CAMWorks Virtual Machine also includes full support for complex multi-tasking and mill-turn machines including 4 axis dual turret, dual spindle lathes, as well as multi-axis mill-turn machines with upper milling heads, lower turrets and sub-spindles.

Synchronized Simultaneous Machining with multiple channels using timing codes is also fully supported. Use CAMWorks Sync Manager to synchronize your operations and then simulate them directly from the G-code!

Multiple Views and Windows can be used to view the machine, stock, fixtures, and tooling from various angles while processing the G-code to assist in proving-out and optimizing your programs.
