Another function that is available to all Simultaneous5x customers under subscription, is SIM5X Auto 3+2 Roughing, which automatically roughs parts from all possible sides, without any manual intervention by the operator.Ī new SolidCAM Simulator was also launched, providing amazing graphical simulation of all SolidCAM operations. These new functions include SolidCAM Edge Breaking, which automatically detects all edges to be deburred and creates a collision-free toolpath and SolidCAM Edge trimming, which can be used especially in the composites industry, to remove excess material from parts during manufacturing. New functions were also implemented in Simultaneous 5x, offering a big saving in CAM programming time.

Based on how tools are assembled in real life, the new ToolKit offers the possibility to assemble tools, their holders, and additional components, exactly as it is done, when tools are assembled in the machine shop. The goal was to make the tool assembly process, as easy as possible for the user. In the new ToolKit, it is now possible to import 3D tool data seamlessly, including tool holders, directly from the tool manufacturers cloud-based tool databases. The new SolidCAM tool management “ToolKit” was introduced, in addition to numerous further developments. The recordings of this important event can be found at: For the first time in such an event, not only SolidCAM worldwide branches, affiliates, and resellers, but also all customers and interested prospects, were invited to participate live in the event. After a three-year development period, SolidCAM2021 was released and presented during a unique online event: “SolidCAM World 2021 – Virtual Summit”. Listening and responding to customer needs is a principle that is deeply rooted in the SolidCAM “DNA”.
