SolidCAM provides seamless single-window integration and full associativity with the SolidWorks design model, so you can program your CNC's directly inside SolidWorks and even watch your toolpaths automatically update when the design model changes. With modules covering lathes, 2.5D milling machines, all the way up to 5-axis and even the most complex Millturns, you simply won't outgrow SolidCAM. It will be the last CAM software you will ever have to purchase.
SolidCAM's revolutionary iMachining module
Finally, all the promises of a Revolution in CNC Machining are actually delivered with iMachining. ??
A real breakthrough in CNC Milling tool path technology that enables cutting 2 to 3 times faster and deeper, by optimizing tool cutting angles and feed through the entire tool path. You can use your existing CNC milling machines to run faster and deeper, with even the smallest cutting tools, in the hardest materials. iMachining provides your CNC Machine shop with unbelievable savings and efficiency, translating into profits and success.
Unlike other CAM software systems that leave users guessing at CNC machining parameters like Speeds and Feeds, iMachining uses a patented "Technology Wizard" that expertly guides the user through all steps to optimize the production job. With the Wizard, iMachining uses the tool data, together with geometry, material and CNC machine properties, to generate smooth morphing spiral toolpaths, that ensure constant cutting force on the tool. The calculated CNC-programs avoid continuous repositioning and time-consuming air cutting movements like insertion, retraction and withdrawing.
The results are significantly higher metal removal rates and also reduced load and wear on the tools and CNC machines. Users enjoy shorter cutting-times for increased CNC machine productivity, longer cutting tool life, better machining process, reduced CNC machine wear and the best surface machining quality.
iMachining is the complete CNC machining intelligent system that adjusts automatically to material, geometry, cutters, and CNC machine tool capability, to lead the user through the entire operation, eliminating the trial and error approach (and endless broken cutters) of adjusting and optimizing parameters at the CNC machine.
