Corporate Academy: Bridge the Gap Between Design and Manufacturing

Corporate Academy: Bridge the Gap Between Design and Manufacturing

With the SOLIDWORKS 2025 release, all SOLIDWORKS licenses with Cloud Services now have access to NC Shop Floor Programmer. This tool allows NC programmers to create and validate 2.5- and 3-axis NC programs, generate wire EDM operations, and verify possible issues during production with machine simulation. You can store and access your data on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, quickly search for and find the part you want to fabricate, and then start working on the NC programming so it is ready for machining long before project completion.

Watch now as we go over and share how you can:

  • Reduce programming time. Use the Wizard to get started and easily create and validate instructions for CNC machines in real time to ensure parts can be manufactured quickly and without delays or errors.
  • Real-time Toolpath Verification. Accurately calculates the toolpath, ensuring it performs as designed; automated hole recognition automatically generates the drilled holes on a part.
  • Validate NC programs. Machine simulation allows programmers to detect machine limit errors and tool reachability problems, and create simulation time charts that are easily shareable on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
  • Auto-generate NC code. Reduce NC programming time through automation and tool path re-use. Store your company’s know-how to quickly create new programs based on proven previously used sequences of operations.
  • Maintain associativity with design. Works seamlessly with other DS CAD solutions (SOLIDWORKS, CATIA, and 3DEXPERIENCE Works portfolio roles, such as 3D Creator and 3D Mold Creator).
