TopSolid'Cam is an extremely powerful application that goes beyond the vision of what integrated CAM should be.

TopSolid'Cam was developed with manufacturing in mind and, more importantly, with manufacturing as the final result. TopSolid'Cam uses revolutionary technology to automate tool path creation with such features as automatically adjusting rapid planes to minimize rapid motion, to intelligent material removal techniques.

Easy to Learn and Use

TopSolid'Cam is extremely easy to learn and use. The reason for this is that within TopSolid'Cam all of the typically complex operations have been simplified to allow any user to program quickly and efficiently. Within TopSolid'Cam, you will spend less time fighting with the software and more time programming your machine tools.

True Solids-Based Machining

Many CAM softwares on the market claim to be "solids-based". However, most of them are not.  Most of them require you to copy or recreate profiles for simple geometry such as pockets or contours. What's more, they are asking you to provide the depth of the details that you are machining. What's the point of using a solid model if you are recreating everything anyway?

In TopSolid'Cam, you truly are machining on solids and leveraging the power of the 3D model. In TopSolid'Cam, all you need to do is select the face that you want to machine. From there, TopSolid'Cam's revolutionary topological analysis kicks in.  It analyzes the model and suggests the best machining strategy for you. The specific details of the area you are machining are automatically calculated by TopSolid'Cam as well. With this revolutionary technology, you can save time and program more parts.

Automated Machining

Are your programmers spending time and money doing repetitive tasks everyday? Are mistakes being made due to this manual programming method?

If you answered yes to these questions you need to look at TopSolid'Cam. With TopSolid'Cam, you can eliminate repetitive errors in everyday tasks. TopSolid'Cam allows you to harness your knowledge of machining over and over again. To top it off, TopSolid'Cam makes it possible for you to add intelligence into your programs. 

For example, you could make a "smart" pocketing routine. This routine could automatically choose the tool for you, and set the depth of cut.You could make it even more efficient and have this smart routine create the roughing and finishing routines.

Automatic Multi-Axis Drilling

Do your programmers struggle with creating good drilling programs? Is the software that you are using smart enough to know the difference between a drilled hole, a tapped hole, a bored hole...? Are you snapping drills because the wrong rapid plane was used? Are you finding it difficult to manage all of the drilling programs on a multi-axis part?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you need to start using TopSolid'Cam.  TopSolid'Cam automatically knows the difference between hole types. Moreover, TopSolid'Cam automatically adjusts the rapid planes for drillings to avoid collision with the part and with fixtures. To take it further, TopSolid'Cam gives you the power to automatically apply your drilling strategies to the part. Because of the power and intelligence of TopSolid'Cam, what used to take you hours can be accomplished in minutes.

Powerful High Speed Machining

Are you fighting with your software to create good clean high-speed tool path motion? Does it seem that no matter what you try you can't get the result your looking for in your 2 and 3 axis tool paths?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you need to start using TopSolid'Cam. By default, all of TopSolid'Cam's tool path is optimized for high speed machining. What's more, all of the high speed optimization is customizable by the end user. This way, you are always sure to get the motion that you want. 

Don't have a high speed machine?  That doesn't matter. Using high speed machining technology makes for smoother motion on any machine. Smoother motion means better finishes. The best part is that you don't have to think hard to achieve this. The only decision you need to make is to buy TopSolid'Cam!

 

Industry-Leading Machine Simulation

TopSolid'Cam introduced machine simulation to their end users in 1994. Since then, developing TopSolid'Cam around harnessing the power of machine simulation has been a key development focal point. 

Today, TopSolid'Cam is leading the industry in integrating the best machine simulation available on the market. Unlike competitive products, TopSolid'Cam includes machine simulation in all levels of the product.

User Definable Setup Sheets

Are you struggling to provide quick and accurate setup information to your shop floor? Are you finding it increasingly difficult to maintain setup sheets when there is an engineering change?

If you answered yes to this, you need TopSolid'Cam.  TopSolid'Cam gives you the ability to create automatic setup sheets that include any and all of the data that is important to you and your company. With TopSolid'Cam, worrying about setup sheet creation will become a thing of the past.

 

Powerful Post Processors

Do you find yourself editing the code that is created by your current CAM application? Are you worried that when you hit the cycle start button on your machine a crash might occur?

If you answered yes to this, you need TopSolid'Cam. TopSolid'Cam has an extremely powerful post processor. The code created by TopSolid'Cam is not only clean, but edit-free. TopSolid'Cam's post processors even allow you to use sub-routines automatically.

Do you want more control over your post processors? No problem. TopSolid'Cam offers a complete Post Generation Kit.  This kit makes it possible for you to create and manage your own post processors. You can use this kit, or have us modify the posts for you.

Integration that Works

Have you struggled to make your CAM software aware of engineering changes? Do you find yourself starting over because the integrated system that you purchased just doesn't work?

If you answered yes to this, you need TopSolid'Cam! What makes TopSolid'Cam different? That's easy; TopSolid'Cam (and the rest of the TopSolid product line) was developed with manufacturing as the end goal. The only way to have a truly integrated CAD and CAM system is to develop them simultaneously. This strategy of development makes it possible to have the tightest integration between CAD and CAM.

In the images to the right you see a part designed in TopSolid. The next image shows the tool path and G-Code that was created for this part. From there you see that the part has gone through a design change. The final image shows the part updated and the new G-Code generated.

By working with a CAD/CAM system that was developed with integrated manufacturing in mind, you will be able to bring your products to market faster than ever before!
