SolidCAM - the full Manufacturing Suite inside SolidWorks

2.5D MILLING
SolidWorks models with features such as pocket cutouts, profiles and drills can be interactively turned into toolpath for profitable production on CNCmachines. Full toolpath control and powerful algorithms ensure that the user can manufacture the way he needs to. Operations can be easily reordered, moved, rotated and mirrored. SolidCAM has been tested for real-life production environments and is successfully used by thousands of manufacturing companies and job shops.

3D MILLING
SolidCAM's 3D Milling can be used both for prismatic parts and for complex 3D models. For prismatic parts SolidCAM analyzes the model and automatically recognizes pockets and profiles to be machined using Zconstant machining strategies. For molds, electrodes and prototypes, SolidCAM offers powerful 3D machining, including advanced High Speed Machining strategies and integrated rest material options. No matter how complex the model, SolidCAM provides the optimal approach and roughing strategy with superior 3D finish machining for mold and die applications.


3+2 MULTI-SIDED MACHINING
With SolidCAM, programming and machining of multi-sided parts on 4- and 5-Axis machining centers is efficient and profitable. SolidCAM rotates the SolidWorks model to the user-defined machining planes and automatically calculates all necessary shifts and tilts for the 3D machining homes. SolidCAM enables flexible set-ups and reduces the need for special clamping jigs. You can define your 2.5D and 3D machining operations on any face and check them using SolidCAM's advanced toolpath verification. The output are ready-to-run programs for your 4/5-axis CNC-machine.

SIMULTANEUOUS 5-AXIS MACHINING
Simultaneous 5-axis machining is becoming more and more popular due to the need for reduced machining times, better surface finish and improved life span of tools. SolidCAM utilizes all the advantages of Simultaneous 5-Axis machining and together with collision control and machine simulation, provides a solid base for your 5-axis solution. Intelligent and powerful 5-axis machining strategies, including swarfing and trimming, enable the use of SolidCAM for machining of complex geometry parts including mold cores and cavities, aerospace parts, cutting tools, cylinder heads, turbine blades and impellers. SolidCAM provides a realistic simulation of the complete machine tool, enabling collision checking between the tool and the machine components.

TURNING + DRIVEN TOOLS
SolidCAM provides maximum productivity and reduced CNC-programming time for Turning, Turning with Driven Tools and for advanced grooving applications. SolidCAM supports a large number of tool-shapes including special support for the advanced machining technologies of ISCAR's Turn-Groove tools. SolidCAM provides all milling and drilling operations for driven tools on the face or the perimeter of the stock.

2/4-AXIS WIRE - EDM
SolidCAM Wire EDM handles profiles and tapers with constant and variable angles, as well as 4-axis contours. SolidCAM's intelligent algorithms prevent the falling of material pieces by automatic pocket processing. SolidCAM provides full user control of stop-points and of wire cutting conditions at any point of the profile or taper.
