Some key APIs include the ability to automate generation of setup sheets, interpret PMI data, manage configurations and manage stocks in assembly.'Īccess will also be featuring the new app from CAMWorks, the CAMWorks View App for iOS devices. There have also been additions made to the API suite for strengthening automation with the addition of 32 new APIs.

The enhanced simulation capability now allows the use of work-in-process models and has the ability to view tool vectors to make it easier to review the toolpaths. In addition, the turn feature creation process has improved intelligence build into it along with enhanced control for canned cycles for turning. 'With the CAMWorks 2014 release, users will benefit from key enhancements to the sub-spindle operations for the complex multi-tasking machines that speed up the programming time. CAMWorks Virtual Machine allows users to create first-time-right NC programs for complex multi-axis machines and to design, create NC programs and simulate post processed G-code seamlessly within one system - saving shop floor time and improving throughput. The CAMWorks Virtual Machine Module goes beyond 'look good' simulation and provides a true G-code based machine simulation. 'The standard machine simulation technology typically simulates based on CL data only. 'A key addition to the CAMWorks product is true G-code machine simulation,' said a company spokesperson. CAMWorks Virtual Machine module with true G-code simulation helps create first-time-right NC programs for complex multi-axis machines.Īccess Manufacturing Systems will be featuring the latest version of the solid-based CNC programming solution CAMWorks, a fully integrated CAM product within SolidWorks.
