You obviously do 3d stuff, don't you think SC is a bit behind the times?
I've used SDRC's Generative Machining which sucks in a 2d environment but is
awesome in 3d.
There are many packages getting good at seamless 3d. Not stitching etc.
Smart Cam is still great at 2-1/2 d.

Why fix something when it is not broken.

My company are also looking into spending thousands of pounds on changing
software.
Why? Smartcam does an excellent job. It caters for all our company needs so
why change?

Isn't SolidWorks' concentration more toward design than CNC machining?

Hello Group!

I have been a SmartCam user and follower of this Newsgroup since version
9.0; still running V11.5 (Production Milling), without problem, but the
moment has arrived to move on and catch up with the evolution of technology,
therefore the need to change software is here; for the time being I will
have presentations by SolidWorks, EdgeCam and MasterCam. Being a follower of
this NG, I know that expertise and knowledge of the group has been of great
help to every one on every aspect of manufacturing and this is my
opportunity to ask you about those applications mentioned above, which I am
sure some of you have a great knowledge of.
I will appreciate any comments on the pros/cons of such applications.


Frank A.
