CAD CAM in manufacturing integrates CAD, Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM), and Product Data Management (PDM) to help design and manufacturing teams plan, simulate, and collaborate on machining processes.
This release offers a complete design-to-manufacturing solution for manufacturing brands across the globe.
Key Features of CAM Studio Beta
"With the release of CAM Studio directly into Onshape's cloud-native platform, users gain built-in version control and centralized storage for their manufacturing strategies," commented David Katzman, General Manager of Onshape and Arena at PTC. "This ensures seamless collaboration, eliminates the risks of file-based workflows, and provides unmatched traceability throughout the design-to-manufacturing process. CAM Studio reinforces our commitment to empowering teams with tools that enhance productivity and drive innovation."
