If you are a manufacturing company, you have to optimize your productivity
across the entire process!!

9. Seamless CAD/CAM Integration
 Single-window integration – Same CAD/CAM
user interface
=> Easy-to-learn and Easy-to-use
 SolidCAM works directly on the SolidWorks
parts and assemblies. Additional information like
dimensions & tolerances are also available
=> No data translation
=> No conversion errors
=> No missing data
 Support import of all standard formats (and
more!)
=> Very important for CAM users who
receive models from other CAD systems

10. SolidCAM is the most associative
CAM for SolidWorks
SolidCAM, totally integrated inside
SolidWorks, provides both types of associativity:
 Toolpath associativity.
 Related-components (fixtures, molds…) associativity.
Changes to any part automatically update all
toolpaths
Changes to any part automatically update all related
components
SolidCAM provides user-control over the extent of
the associativity
