CAMWORKS CAM SOFTWARE FOR CNC MACHINING
With CAMWorks, you have the ability to store machining strategies based on features, which becomes a time-saving practice as you can reuse the strategies to reduce programming time significantly. If a design change is needed, the integration within SOLIDWORKS allows the tool paths to automatically update with no need to re-program.
Feature-based machining and Automatic Feature Recognition (AFR) within the software will ensure time savings when programming your CAD models. The AFR function will recognize over 20 types of machinable features in both imported and native CAD models. The option of Interactive Feature Recognition (IFR) is also available for more complex multi-surface features and will still take advantage of the machining strategies to save your machining techniques.
CAMWORKS STANDARD
CAMWorks Standard includes a full range of 2.5 axis milling with 4 and 5 axis indexing options, as well as turning and assembly machining.
CAMWORKS PREMIUM
With CAMWorks Premium you will be able to program turning machines, as well as 2.5, 3, 4 and 5 axis simultaneous milling machines with ease.
CAMWORKS MILLING PRO
Powerful 3 axis tool pathing is introduced within CAMWorks Milling Pro. Mill-Turn machines can also be programmed within this package.
CAMWORKS TURNING PRO
For advanced turning applications the CAMWorks Turning Pro package includes Mill-Turn and synchronous machining toolpath options.
CAMWORKS WIRE EDM
Both 2.5 and 4 Axis cutting operations are included in the CAMWorks Wire EDM package. Utilizing AFR will allow the user to create and save machining strategies for die and punch features.
NESTINGWORKS
This easy to use nesting software will allow the user to nest their CAD models in an optimal flat layout to save excess material and time. The software makes use of true part shape, & part-in-part nesting techniques.
CAM POST PROCESSORS
Hawk Ridge Systems writes and supports SOLIDWORKS CAM and CAMWorks post processors which enable the programmer to post code from the CAM software to their CNC machine.
CAMWORKS CNC SOFTWARE FEATURES
A completely associative and integrated CAM software with knowledge based machining strategies. CAMWorks is a next generation best-of-class CNC programming software.
SEAMLESS INTEGRATION
Create machinable features from imported or native SOLIDWORKS CAD models and toolpaths will update when design changes are made.
KNOWLEDGE BASED MACHINING
Leverage existing machining techniques from your companies top programmers and save these as machining strategies within CAMWorks.
FEATURE BASED MACHINING
Reduce programming time by selecting full 3D machinable features instead of 2D chaining and profiling.
AUTOMATIC FEATURE RECOGNITION
Take advantage of the Automatic Feature Recognition (AFR) tool within CAMWorks. This tool can find over 20 different machinable feature types from prismatic shapes on your CAD model.
HIGH SPEED MACHINING
Create high speed milling toolpaths with CAMWorks integrated Volumill™ toolpath. This toolpath will reduce machining time significantly and will also increase tool life.
TURNING WITH LIVE TOOLING CAPABILITIES
The CAMWorks Mill-Turn product includes the full turning package with milling capabilities for your multi-tasking machine centers.
CAMWORKS FOR COSTING
Check your CAM program's estimated machining times as a cost estimation tool with the coordination of machining strategies, and Automatic Feature Recognition.
MACHINE SIMULATION
Verify possible collisions in your CAM program using simulation options included in CAMWorks and the CAMWorks NC Editor.
WHY CAMWORKS CNC MACHINING SOFTWARE?
Decreasing machining time and programming time is a top priority for CAMWorks users. With the help of Automatic Feature Recognition (AFR) and high-speed machining toolpaths, CAMWorks users are ahead of the game. With a reduction of air cutting, rest machining techniques will help save time and tool life for your shop. The Volumill™ high-speed toolpathing techniques will significantly reduce machining time by as much as 85% and decrease tool wear in the process.
With a variety of machining packages, CAMWorks can program 2.5, 3, 4 and 5 axis milling machines, Turning machines, Mill-Turn machines, Wire EDM, and many more. CAMWorks is a robust CNC programming package that will take your company to the next level.
INDUSTRY-LEADING INTEGRATED CAM TOOL FOR SOLIDWORKS
The journey from prototype to production is rarely a straight line. As you probably already know, in the job shop environment, profits and loss are determined in a big way by whether or not you have an efficient manufacturing process workflow.
With CAMWorks, users program faster and machine smarter with reduced setup time, be able to address complex geometry with faster roughing, and reduced CNC programming time all within an easy-to-use user interface.
