* Module CAMWorks allows you to create programs milling, turning, turning, milling and wire EDM. The following types of machines: milling with simultaneous control of two? five axles;
* Turning single and duplex, with one or two slides, with a programmable servo-mechanism (tailstocks, lunettes, catcher details ...);
* Turning and Milling single and duplex, with one or two slides, with a programmable servo-mechanism, with simultaneous control of two? five axles;
* Erosion of the two-and chetyrehosevye.

Treatment is carried out directly in SolidWorks and directly on the model of SolidWorks. The results of the programmer are stored in the same model parts or assemblies SolidWorks. This provides full associativity of the model and the tool path that leads to the automatic renewal of all the trajectories of the tool during the model changes.

When you add in the SolidWorks model of any process data, such as the designation of roughness, base, tolerances of form and position of surfaces, tolerances on dimensions, engineer-programmer always has immediate access to them, which facilitates the selection scheme based on the machine parts and selection of required provide a given quality of parts of the tool and cutting conditions.

The part can be easily adapted to the needs of processing by, for example, avoiding redundancies in terms of processing elements of geometry, or by converting the size of the executive model in the middle of the tolerance field. While working with the SolidWorks assembly can perform a joint processing of multiple parts, program processing a series of items, or just completely simulate all the real situation on the machine table - all of snap-in, logging of any complexity, and so on - for the most complete account the realities of treatment at the earliest stages a program
