MachineWorks Ltd. reports that TOPSOLID SAS, a supplier of advanced CAD, CAM, PDM and ERP solutions, will upgrade the capabilities of TopSolid CAM by including the recently released MachineWorks GPU.
MachineWorks GPU can create an accurate in-process stock model in seconds now, according to the company.
“We are of course impressed by the huge boost in performance offered by performing CNC simulations on the GPU," says Patrice Tiberi, deputy CEO, director of Product Strategy and Development at TOPSOLID. "We were also pleased to find that integrating the new tool was very easy—it uses the same API calls as their other stock modelling engines, so we were able to drop it in and start testing with minimal effort.”
“TOPSOLID has been a close and important partner for MachineWorks for over twenty years now, and we’re pleased to be able to support them in contributing to a new era of manufacturing productivity,” says Dr Fenqiang Lin, managing director of MachineWorks.
GPU features will be available in the next major release of TopSolid, TopSolid 2026 (v7.20) RTM, planned for January 2026.
TOPSOLID publishes CAD/CAM software. With 40 years of experience TOPSOLID offers a fully integrated CAD/CAM solution. The company targets the mechanical sector (machinery, tools, etc.), sheet metal work and the wood industry.
