Geometric Showcases Futuristic CAMWorks

Geometric Limited introduces the latest version of its solids-based CNC programming solution, CAMWorks 2013.

The first SolidWorks gold partner CAM system is an advanced CAD/CAM system. The combination of its automatic feature recognition technology and knowledge-based machining helps users reduce programming time from hours to minutes or even seconds.

CAMWorks 2013 offers several enhancements over previous models, including a new Synchronous Machining Module (SMM) focused on simplifying programming of complex mill-turn machines. A first for the CAM industry, CAMWorks 2013 also introduces the first cost effective true G-code machine simulator, giving its users the ability to create ‘first-time right’ programs for mill-turn and other complex multi-axis machines.

CAMWorks 2013 provides users with the capability to fully automate CNC programming not only for families of parts, but also for families of features regardless of part configuration to simplify the 'Order-to-Part' process. To make this a reality, CAMWorks provides its users with full tool-path to solid model associativity, the ability to capture practices of their programmers and machinist, and a set of APIs allowing its users to automate the entire CNC programming process.
