These capabilities are planned for the last quarter of 2013. Ability to machine parts in assembly models.In its first release, CAMWorks for Solid Edge lacks some of the capabilities of CAMWorks for SolidWorks. Examples of machinable features recognized by CAMWorks. ![]() CAM systems that are not integrated with CAD require revised parts to be re-exported, and in most cases updates to geometry must be made interactively. When complete, tool paths and other CAM information are stored in the Solid Edge model.Ĭhanges made to Solid Edge parts are immediately reflected in NC programs produced by CAMWorks. There is no need to export software to another format and import it into an NC programming tool. CAMWorks appears as just another tab in the Solid Edge menu.ĬAMWorks for Solid Edge allows programmers to open a part file in native format and begin making a numerically controlled tool program immediately. Although seven computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software products have achieved so-called Gold Partner integration with SolidWorks, CAMWorks is the first such software to be seamlessly embedded within Solid Edge. In June 2013, Geometric Software released a version of CAMWorks integrated with Solid Edge, the value priced CAD system from Siemens PLM Software. ![]() Here’s a look at the features and capabilities of version 1.05 of Solid Edge.ĬAMWorks was first published as an add-in application for numerically controlled (NC) tool programming in SolidWorks in 1997.
