Shaun Mymudes, COO of SolidCAM Inc of North America commented, "AU 2013 was a successful show for us, with Autodesk promoting the subtractive CNC technology of CAM, in addition to their traditional focus on 3D printing. Even those in other design areas voiced their interest in CAM, as for many it was the first time autodesk had prominently featured CAM Technology.Ĭarl Bass, CEO of Autodesk, mentioned CAM several times in his keynote address and there were special breakout sessions focused on educating people on how they can turn their designs into reality using CNC machines. With huge screens at InventorCAM booth, displaying the latest advancements in InventorCAM’s CNC machining, including the revolutionary iMachining, along with adjoining HAAS CNC machines, hundreds of mechanical design-oriented attendees commented on how interesting and exciting the CAM technology is and how they are now more open to do production CNC machining in-house. Autodesk University took a new turn in 2013, as the latest in Computer Manufacturing Software from SolidCAM and also CNC machines were featured, in a conference that had traditionally focused only on design for mechanical, architecture, civil engineering and computer graphic animation. SolidCAM exhibited InventorCAM 2014 at Autodesk University 2013 held at Las Vegas, USA. InventorCAM 2014 has more than 100 new enhancements across all its modules: iMachining 2D and 3D, 2.5D Milling, HSS, HSR/HSM, Sim 5x, Turning, Advanced Mill-Turn for multi-turret and multi-spindle machines, as well as a new module - Solid Probe. InventorCAM is a certified partner of autodesk inventor. InventorCAM's CAM software, for all CNC applications, including the revolutionary patented iMachining, is seamlessly integrated in autodesk inventor and with full toolpath associativity to the inventor model. InventorCAM from SolidCAM is the leading integrated CAM for autodesk inventor.
