Geometric Limited a leader in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Global Engineering Services and Offshore Product Development (OPD) solutions and technologies, will showcase the latest release of its solid-based CNC programming solution, CAMWorks 2012, along with its new 2.5D CAM package, CAMWorksXpress, and DFMPro, at the SolidWorks World 2012, booth 524, San Diego Convention Center, from February 12-15, 2012 in San Deigo, CA, USA.
Attendees will have the opportunity to see live demonstrations of all three solutions and connect with the company’s engineers during the three day event. Marc Bissell, Sr. Applications Engineer, Geometric will also present on ‘Integrated Design and Manufacturing – From Orders to Parts’ at the Certified Partner Theater on Tuesday, February 14, at 1:00 p.m.
The company will showcase:
CAMWorks 2012: CAMWorks 2012 supports SolidWorks 2012, and contains improvements in the functionality to enable faster and easier programming, and to produce more efficient tool paths for improved machining productivity. CAMWorks 2012 now includes a new Nesting add-on, which is integrated within SolidWorks to create optimized nested layouts of Parts or Assemblies. Using CAMWorks Nesting a user can select Single/Multiple sheets, specify the part-to-part distance and sheet margin/collar.
CAMWorksXpress: CAMWorksXpress is an ideal solution for programmers and machinists, as well as new users, who are looking for an easy to learn and easy to use 2.5D machining CAM package. CAMWorksXpress is a powerful yet inexpensive tool that runs seamlessly inside SolidWorks and provides the high-powered features required for machining efficiently.
DFMPro: DFMPro is a unique and easy to use tool for the validation of the manufacturability of a designed product. By checking models for manufacturability upfront, DFMPro helps engineers address the problem of repetitive design revisions. It also helps quickly validate designs based on best practices. The new Casting capabilities of the product will be showcased at the event, along with the existing checks for Injection Molding, Sheet Metal, and Machining.
