This helps you understand how the G-codes are generated by using the respective post processors, which is an important step and an ultimate way to confirm that the toolpaths and G-codes generated are accurate and useful. One of the unique features of this book is the incorporation of the CL (cutter location) data verification by reviewing the G-codes generated from the toolpaths. Both milling and turning operations are included. The concepts and commands are introduced in a tutorial style presentation using simple but realistic examples.
Basic concepts and commands introduced include extracting machinable features (such as 2.5 axis features), selecting machine and tools, defining machining parameters (such as feed rate), generating and simulating toolpaths, and post processing CL data to output G-codes for support of CNC machining. The book covers the basic concepts and frequently used commands and options you'll need to know to advance from a novice to an intermediate level CAMWorks user. In addition, the machining time estimated in CAMWorks provides an important piece of information for estimating product manufacturing cost without physically manufacturing the product. Capabilities in CAMWorks allow you to select CNC machines and tools, extract or create machinable features, define machining operations, and simulate and visualize machining toolpaths. CAMWorks provides excellent capabilities for machining simulations in a virtual environment. CAMWorks is embedded in SOLIDWORKS as a fully integrated module. CAMWorks is a virtual machining tool designed to increase your productivity and efficiency by simulating machining operations on a computer before creating a physical product. This book is written to help you learn the core concepts and steps used to conduct virtual machining using CAMWorks.
