Custom tool display allows users to define a tool using parametric properties along with a custom profile that can be imported from a CAD file.įor more information on Mastercam for SOLIDWORKS, please visit About Mastercamĭeveloped by CNC Software, Inc., Mastercam is Windows-based CAD/CAM software for 2- through 5-axis routing, milling and turning, 2- and 4-axis wire EDM, 2D and 3D design, surface and solid modeling, and Swiss machining.Mastercam Simulator auto start which allows Mastercam Simulator to immediately begin to play once a sufficient amount of data has been transferred.
Code expert enhancements including fonts and colors in NC Configuration and character coding. New chip break is available in Mastercam for SOLIDWORKS Lathe and is valuable when working with stringy materials, and allows you to set length and time conditions, retract, and dwell options. Those who purchase or update to Mastercam Mill 2017 or Mastercam Lathe 2017 will also be able to use the corresponding version of Mastercam for SOLIDWORKS. All drop-downs now have an icon that matches the first of the functions to make it easier to find what you are looking for. Category-specific icons are now included on the SOLIDWORKS ribbon bar. 
To view real-time operation data about selected toolpaths, you can choose the Display toolpath statistics option. Mastercam creates a sketch from the resulting geometry.Īlso available in the Mastercam 2017 for SOLIDWORKS release is: The roll-unroll function is used to wrap geometry about an axis, or to unwrap rolled entities to make them lie flat. The Mastercam 2017 tab now includes a CAD functions menu which contains the create boundary and create letters functions. When a modification to the SOLIDWORKS geometry affects multiple planes, Mastercam for SOLIDWORKS displays a message asking you to confirm your changes. To simplify your work, Tplanes are now associated to the SOLIDWORKS geometry that was used to create them. When hovering over an element that is not an endpoint, a tooltip will display information that is specific to the entity. 
Green and red arrows display at the start and end points of the entire path. To make your job easier, analyze toolpath is used to display toolpath information such as coordinates, direction, operation number, and more when you hover over any part of the tool motion. In addition to all the improvements to Mastercam Mill and Lathe, Mastercam 2017 for SOLIDWORKS features the analyze toolpath, improved Tplanes, and so much more. Users can program parts directly in SOLIDWORKS using Mastercam’s industry-leading toolpaths and machining strategies.
