Hi



What CAM software do You use (mainly) with Solidworks ?



Thanks for your answer !



Best Regards, J. J


Jerry,

We use Mastercam. It imports Parasolid flawlessly. It will also read native SW files for a time during the release cycle. Since SW updates more frequently, there is sometimes a gap where this won't work. Mastercam usually will provide a C-hook utility at these points to allow reading native files.

We use Gibbscam. We really like the ability to have the tool paths update automatically when we change the model in SW.
