SolutionWare Corporation (San Jose, CA) announces PowerCAM for Lathe Live-Tooling/Mill-Turn, a solution for programming live-tooling CNCs, which acts as a programming assistant that works within SolidWorks and uses solids to generate CNC programs. PowerCAM works with feature-based solids as well as imported files such as solid IGES or solid STEP.
Within SolidWorks, partnering with SolutionWare, you can load your CAD file and select features or geometry to make your programs. PowerCAM works directly with SolutionWare’s CAM products, GeoPath and MazaCAM, to automatically generate CNC code in the various formats needed for virtually all CNC machines, including G-code and Mazak’s Mazatrol. This programming assistant can take a solid in SolidWorks and in a few clicks assign tools, cuts, feeds, and speeds to program parts automatically and reduce the programming time.
