- [Instructor] SolidWorks CAM introduces a new toolbar
and new feature trees to the SolidWorks user interface.
The CAM feature tree lists all of the features
and operation steps that the user will create
as they use SolidWorks CAM tools.
If the CAM tools are installed,
you'll also see a new tab in the toolbar
that says SolidWorks CAM.
If you don't see this, then you can go to the Tools menu,
open up the Add-Ins dialogue box
and make sure that the SolidWorks CAM tools are checked.
Back to the CAM toolbar.
This is where all the CAM commands can be found,
everything from defining your machine parameters,
defining your stock parameters,
as well as automated and manual tools
for interactively creating your milling operations.
Within the CAM feature tree,
we have the ability to select and organize various tools,
various machining processes, and other parameters critical
to machining your parts.
