Frequently Asked Questions
SolidCAM is compatible with SOLIDWORKS versions up to two years older versions.
For example SolidCAM 2025 is compatible with SOLIDWORKS 2023 to SOLIDWORKS 2025. It is always advised to keep both your SolidCAM and SOLIDWORKS updated simultaneously.
SolidCAM licensing options effectively match the options we have available for SOLIDWORKS.
Licenses can be purchased as perpetual licenses in both Standalone and network formats. We also offer terms licenses for short term usage in the form of 12-month term licenses. Contact us for more information.
SolidCAM offer machining capabilities with modules which are scalable from low level machining up to an entire machine shop. This can start with 2.5D milling and turning and can be advanced to include 4/5 axis machining, mill-turn and advanced/swiss type turning. SolidCAM also boast other capabilities including Wire EDM to meet all of your manufacturing needs.
Here at Solid Solutions our highly Skilled engineers create bespoke Posts specific to your needs and requirements based on your CNC Machine. The role of the Post Processor is to translate toolpaths to G Code for specific CNC machines. Using GPPL language and the open source, customisable platform which SolidCAM utilises our Engineers can create bespoke Post Processors compatible with a wide range of machines and CNC Controllers.
SolidCAM’s integration with SOLIDWORKS ensures a seamless transition from Design to Manufacture. By working directly on the CAD model allows for continuous associativity between the CAD model and the CNC Machine helping to maximise your workflows and efficiencies.
Yes. Here at Solid Solutions, we offer comprehensive training courses across all modules of the SolidCAM Software. Through our in-depth training courses you will quickly be able to adopt the most efficient workflows and best practises to ensure you maximise the benefits SolidCAM can bring to your Business and your Design and Manufacturing processes.
Solid Solutions are here to help you along every step of the way in your journey with SolidCAM and SOLIDWORKS. This starts with the implementation of the software and continues through the services we offer. These services cover Support and Training in the software along with Customer Care visits to ensure you are maximising your potential with the use of SolidCAM. We also offer consultancy and more where you’ll work alongside our recognised SolidCAM experts and specialist and our technical team to achieve your vision.
