With the part open, we will go through our usual CAMWorks workflow to start programming a part: Normally it is found in CAMWorks Data/examples/mill. The part I am going to open can be found in the examples folder installed with CAMWorks. Let’s go through the steps to start teaching CAMWorks how we program out parts while getting our “real” job done. So how do we get where we want to be while taking care of business? With CAMWorks, we can actually achieve both by doing a little on the job training. We have a great idea but then we are stuck with having to do our “real” job to keep up with demand, after all that’s what pays for this new process. “If I only had more time, I could really change how we do things but……….” This happens with all new technology or evolution changes within a company. We get the new software, go to training, sit down and start using it to find us stuck in the scenario previously mentioned. When most of us look at a tool like CAMWorks, we love the idea feature based technology and the automation it has to make the most repetitive task seem fun and enjoyable like it’s the first time we did it. Thanks to Michael for submitting this article.Īs we look at new technology and the understanding that we live in a world where we are always expected to do more work in less time with fewer people, we often get stuck between integrating the new technology and “just get it done” mentality. Michael has worked for CAD resellers, but is now working in industry. : This article was guest written by Michael Buchli, author of The CAMWorks Guide.
