On the software discovery list. Connector development and release dates have not been announced.
Workflow ideas
Select machining features
Start from the selected part, stock, machine or cell layout. In the intended SolidCAM preview, select machining features; the visible result is a process setup with work coordinates, resources and target geometry visible. Review orientation, reach, tooling and fixture assumptions before accepting or exporting it.
Generate integrated toolpaths
Begin with the chosen operations, tools or robot tasks. In the intended SolidCAM preview, generate integrated toolpaths; the visible result is a generated path or production sequence over the same setup. Review clearance, collisions, limits, feeds and operation order before accepting or exporting it.
Verify a CNC setup
Use the simulated material removal, robot motion or process results. In the intended SolidCAM preview, verify a CNC setup; the visible result is a verification view with remaining stock, reach or cycle data exposed. Review collisions, code target, cycle time and safe human approval before accepting or exporting it.
