Seamless CAD Integration
The complete, ‘Best-in-Class’ CAM Suite for Profitable CNC-Programming in SOLIDWORKS, Solid Edge & Autodesk Inventor
SolidCAM’s single-window integration into SOLIDWORKS®, Solid Edge® & Autodesk Inventor® means all machining operations can be defined, calculated and verified without leaving the SOLIDWORKS, Solid Edge or Inventor assembly environment, avoiding endless and time wasting file imports.
Additionally, all 2D and 3D geometries used for machining are fully associative to the SOLIDWORKS, Solid Edge and Inventor design models – If you make any changes to your CAD model, all of your CAM operations will be automatically updated.
You'll Never Need to Leave Your CAD Window
- Works right inside your existing CAD: Seamless integration in SOLIDWORKS, Solid Edge & Autodesk Inventor
- Full Associativity: Design changes initiate automatic tool path updates
- Eliminates import/export challenges: Saves large amount of time and frustration
- Gets you up to speed fastest: Extremely short learning curve because you’re already familiar with our interface since it runs right inside your CAD
- Get the full picture: SolidCAM, SolidCAM for Solid Edge & InventorCAM work in the CAD assembly mode to graphically show Fixtures, Tooling & Vices in simulations
Benefits of using SolidCAM in SOLIDWORKS
- SOLIDWORKS look and feel through seamless single window integration – with full support for modern 4K displays
- Full associativity: toolpaths automatically update when the SOLIDWORKS model changes
- SolidCAM works in the SOLIDWORKS assembly mode to define fixtures, tooling and vices
Benefits of using SolidCAM for Solid Edge
- All CAM machining operations can be defined, calculated, and verified without leaving Solid Edge
- Full associativity: toolpaths are automatically updated when the Solid Edge model is changed
- Fixtures, tooling, and vices can be designed quickly in Solid Edge and used directly with SolidCAM
- Access to SolidCAM’s patented iMachining high speed milling technology that creates significantly faster and safe CAM programs to machine parts with first part success, while maximizing tool life
Benefits of using InventorCAM in Inventor
- Inventor look and feel through seamless single window integration – with full support for modern 4K displays
- Full associativity: toolpaths automatically update when the Inventor model changes
- InventorCAM works in the Inventor assembly mode to define fixtures, tooling and vices
Customers RAVE about SolidCAM's CAD Integration
If changes are made on the design side, we capture them on the manufacturing side because SOLIDWORKS and SolidCAM are fully associative.
- | Essai Corporation 
The tight integration with SOLIDWORKS makes my design-to-production life cycle easy and fast.
- | Kramer Designs Corporation 
The ease of making CAM Gcode right within our SOLIDWORKS 3D modeler is hard to beat.
- | fpvmanuals 
The tight integration and powerful functionality of the Inventor + InventorCAM solution improved our productivity and it explains why the Inventor+InventorCAM solution is getting a strong following.
- | GDK Technologies, Inc. 
Our InventorCAM Package has made smooth and easy integration between design and manufacturing, making it easy to get our parts produced. This saves our customers money.
- | Chugach Electric Association 
InventorCAM seemed like a natural extension of Inventor... InventorCAM was extremely easy to learn. I was actually generating code the first week, and this is on our five axis CNC machine.
