SolidCAMsolidcam.comSolidCAM is CAM software for CNC machining offered as an integrated system that supports milling, turning, mill-turn, and Swiss machining, with full CAD integration inside SolidWorks, Solid Edge, and Autodesk Inventor. It uses patented iMachining to reduce cycle times by up to 70% and extend tool life up to 5x across 2D and 3D roughing, rest machining, and finishing operations. The platform includes customized post-processors and built-in machine simulation to produce ready-to-run G-code while automatically updating CAM operations when CAD models change.
