File size: 6.63 GBSolidCAM is a new generation CAD/CAM system developed by the Israeli company SolidCAM Ltd (Official distributor in Russia – Consistent Software). This system is a comprehensive solution for automation of metalworking production. Using a wide range of SolidCAM strategies for turning, milling, turning-milling and electrical discharge machining, a technologist can quickly prepare the necessary set of control programs for mechanical processing of a product.
SolidCAM functionality2.5-axis millingSolidCAM provides high efficiency and accuracy of 2.5-axis milling of parts. Various strategies for processing such elements as contour, selection (with islands) and groove are supported, as well as various types of hole processing: drilling, countersinking, thread cutting, etc. The system has a wide range of capabilities for 2.5-axis processing of analytical surfaces.
SolidCAM 3-axis millingoffers a wide range of tools that can be effectively used to process items with complex geometry (dies, press forms) and prismatic parts. A 3D surface or solid model is used as geometry for 3-axis machining. The system supports various types of roughing and finishing strategies, such as raster machining with a specified or automatically determined raster angle, equidistant machining, projection machining, waterline machining, etc.
In addition to the already listed capabilities of 2.5- and 3-coordinate machining, SolidCAM offers tools for identifying and refining areas that were not processed in previous transitions. It is possible to create a database of typical technological processes. Once created, such a parameterized technological process can be repeatedly used in the future, which significantly reduces the time of production preparation, increases the reliability of the developed programs, unifies the style of technological developments, guarantees the use of only optimal machining technologies and ensures the independence of production from the human factor. The absence of cuts is guaranteed by the presence of control and visualization tools for mechanical processing.
Multi-axis machiningSolidCAM offers various tools for creating control programs for multi-axis machining on 4- and 5-axis machining centers. The model is installed in a user-defined machining plane, after which the system automatically calculates all the necessary offset and rotation parameters for the part zero. As a result, the preparatory and final transition time is significantly reduced and the machining accuracy is increased.
Turning and turn-milling processingSolidCAM has a wide range of functions for automating the creation of control programs for turning and turn-milling processing. SolidCAM supports various types of tools, which allows for efficient longitudinal turning, end trimming, groove processing, etc. In addition, SolidCAM allows for automatic roughing and finishing of complex contours. Support for rotating tools allows for milling and drilling transitions on machining centers.
Electrical Discharge MachiningSolidCAM's set of wire electrical discharge machining strategies enables machining of external and internal contours with constant and variable inclination angles. 4-axis machining is possible. A special algorithm prevents the material from falling. SolidCAM provides the user with the means to control the physical parameters of machining along the entire wire path.
