SolidCAM
With over 27 years expertise in CAM development and applications, SolidCAM started out as a fully integrated CAD/CAM system. After many years of successful development, the founder, Dr. Emil Somekh, realized it was more efficient to focus on developing an integrated CAM system for SolidWorks and thus leverage all the power of the company to develop the CAM functionality and use the great import and CAD power of SolidWorks. This same architecture was used to later integrate with Inventor also.

Some of the major Benefits of using SolidCAM:
- Associativity:
- Tool paths Update when Part changes
- Use feature Tree for picking features
- Scalable with packages for all CNC machine types and Applications Featuring:
- Powerful and mature simultaneous 5 axes
- Advanced Mill-turn up to 7 axes
- SolidWorks Look and Feel - Single Window interface
- iMachining
- Automatic feature recognition for locating and selecting Holes and Pockets
- HSM - High Speed machining for optimized Tool Paths
- HSS - High Speed Surface machining for Undercuts and Single surface constraint.
- Templates and presets for repeated parts and novice users
- 100’s of SolidCAM Professor 24-7, 365 Right on Website, no Login needed
- Rest material to eliminate air cuts and speed up smaller-tool clean-ups
