Buy CamWorks for SolidWorks software

Product Overview

CAMWorks for SolidWorks is integrated CAM software for automated CNC programming directly within SolidWorks. It combines automatic feature recognition, knowledge-based machining strategies, and high-speed toolpath generation for milling and turning operations targeting CNC programmers and manufacturing engineers.

CAMWorks extends SolidWorks with advanced multi-axis capabilities, VoluMill ultra-high-speed roughing, tolerance-based machining automation, and Technology Database for reusable machining strategies. Design engineers and programmers use CAMWorks for rapid NC code generation, reduced cycle times, and associative toolpath updates across job shop, mold and die, aerospace, and precision manufacturing workflows.

CAMWorks Key Features

• Automatic Feature Recognition (AFR): Recognize over 20 prismatic machinable features including holes, pockets, slots, and bosses automatically from SolidWorks geometry to reduce programming time by up to 90% compared to manual operation selection.
• Knowledge-Based Machining (KBM): Automatically select optimal machining strategies, tools, feeds, speeds, and depths of cut based on feature type and material properties to generate production-ready toolpaths with minimal manual editing.
• VoluMill High-Speed Roughing: Apply VoluMill adaptive constant-engagement technology for complex 3D shapes and prismatic parts to reduce cycle times up to 80% and extend cutting tool life up to 500% on hard materials like titanium and stainless steel.
• Tolerance-Based Machining (TBM): Read tolerance ranges, surface finish annotations, and geometric dimensioning from SolidWorks PMI data to automatically select correct machining strategies and machine to specified tolerances without manual interpretation.
• Technology Database (TechDB): Capture and store proven machining strategies, tools, feeds, speeds, and operation templates in TechDB to reuse best practices across parts and reduce redundant programming tasks on future projects.
• 2.5 and 3-Axis Milling Operations: Program area clearing roughing, constant step finishing, pencil milling, and z-level operations with full control over toolpath parameters and cutting conditions for cavity and pocket machining.
• 4 and 5-Axis Simultaneous Machining: Create simultaneous multi-axis toolpaths for complex geometries including impellers, turbine blades, undercut pockets, and contoured cavities to machine parts in fewer setups and reduce total cycle time.
• Turning and Mill-Turn Operations: Program lathe operations for cylindrical parts and simultaneous mill-turn machining on CNC turning centers to combine milling and turning in single setup for complex rotary components.
• Virtual Machine Simulation: Simulate complete CNC machine motion and tool movement using actual G-code output to detect collisions, verify tool clearances, and test part programs before running on the shop floor machine.
• Associative Toolpath Updates: Automatically update toolpaths when SolidWorks model geometry changes to maintain design-to-manufacturing synchronization and eliminate manual CAM rework from design iteration cycles.
• NC Code Editor and Backplotting: Verify and edit generated G-code directly with integrated editor, backplot toolpath verification, and syntax checking to ensure correct part programs before CNC machining.
