Geometric Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of Geometric Limited, and known until October 2007 as TekSoft, Inc. supplies CAMWorks, a Computer Aided Manufacturing(CAM Software) product. Currently it sources its [[High Speed Machining]] strategies from an unnamed third party that "devotes 10–15 programmers to developing just this module". The company's first product was ProCAD/CAM (introduced in 1984), which was largely discontinued by 2006 due to the difficulty in managing 20-plus year-old DOS-based code.
CAMWorks is a fully integrated computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) solution designed to operate within SolidWorks. It uses its knowledge base (called TechDB) and Automatic Feature Recognition (AFR) tools to help in the machining processes.
Automatic Feature Recognition – An interesting feature in CAMWorks is the AFR technology which analysis the solid model geometry and identifies mill features such as holes, slots, pockets and bosses; turning features such as outside and inside...
