As digital product development advances, it becomes increasingly crucial to integrate information from the design process into CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing). By leveraging the extensive range of APIs and automation capabilities available today, CAM-TOOL serves as a powerful complement to existing solutions like NXCAM. Using NX as a platform, CAM-TOOL helps create a higher-quality and more efficient manufacturing environment, enabling seamless transitions from design to production.
Working environment with NX operations
The "CAM-TOOL for NX" user interface aligns seamlessly with NX CAM operations, ensuring a consistent and intuitive working environment.
Through close collaboration, it enables the integration of NX CAM machining modes, allowing users to fully leverage the core features of NX, including tool path editing, tooling information, machine simulation, and Product Manufacturing Information (PMI). This integration empowers manufacturers to streamline workflows and maximize efficiency.
