Edgecam Solid Machinist for Solid Edge

Edgecam Solid Machinist provides you with the perfect solution for manufacturing your Solid Edge designs

Edgecam Solid Machinist^™- The future of engineering design is solids and once again Pathtrace leads the industry with Edgecam Solid Machinist - the definitive solid machining system. Solid Machinist loads a Solid Edge design exactly as it was created in Solid Edge. Using innovative features such as Automatic Feature Recognition, Technology Assistant and Code Wizard, a comprehensive machining strategy and NC code can be generated right - the first time!

Integration with Solid Edge allows you to directly load the ".par" or parasolid files directly into Edgecam without time consuming and intelligence-stripping translation.

Edgecam Solid Machinist develops your toolpaths directly from the Solid Edge design model, exactly as it was created in the design environment. Design changes are easily accommodated with toolpath to solid model associativity.

Edgecam Solid Machinist reduces design to manufacture time: the cost involved in manufacturing 3D solid models; eliminates the risk of data-corruption; and automates the NC programming process.

Solid Edge (http://www.solidedge.com) from EDS is a powerful, 3D computer-aided design (CAD) software for designers of machinery, tooling, electro-mechanical and other products to easily and quickly create, capture and share product knowledge across the entire engineering organization. Solid Edge Insight knowledge-sharing technology embeds design management capabilities directly within CAD to provide better quality products, lower costs, and shorter delivery cycles. Thousands of companies worldwide cite Solid Edge for its innovative capabilities and ease of use.

Toolpath Simulation
Within the Edgecam Solid Machinist environment, the toolpaths are dynamically simulated over the Solid Edge model, giving a clear understanding of the machining process. Precise control over the simulation is maintained with a dedicated toolbar.

Edgecam Solid Machinist for Solid Edge also includes:

2.5 and 3-Axis Milling
Multiplane Machining
Surface Machining
Advanced Surface Machining
Turning
Code Wizard
Toolstore
NC Code Editor
Communications Wizard
Toolpath Verification

Prismatic and free-form machining

When a native Solid Edge part is opened in Edgecam, it is maintained as a solid model.
Feature Finder automatically interrogates the Solid Edge part to find machineable features, which are then efficiently machined using Edgecam's extensive range of Prismatic and Freeform Surface operations.

Edgecam Solid Machinist reduces design to manufacture time: the cost involved in manufacturing 3D solid models; eliminates the risk of data-corruption; and automates the NC programming process.
