20. CW-117823 CSR-21923 Feeds & Speeds Attempt by customer to import customized 32-Bit Feeds and Speeds Library into 64 Bit Material Library.exe (in SQLite format) is unsuccessful.
21. CW-117779 CSR-16471 VoluMill For the specific part, the VoluMill Area Clearance toolpath is not considering the stock portion (Undercut Geometry)hen the Rest Machining method is set by STL file which also happens to be the stock.
22. CW-117701 CSR-21796 Feeds & Speeds In Material Library, when editing the Feeds and Speeds forTapping Operations, issues are observed with assigning pitch numbers if they are set to below '1'. Observed for Metric units only.
23. CW-117492 CSR-21696 VoluMill For the specific part file, the VoluMill toolpath generated is exceeding the user-assigned max stepover resulting in the breakage of the tool.
24. CW-117397 CSR-19762 Rebuild For the specific part, the Drill toolpath generated for one of its Hole group features does not rebuild properly after unsuppressing a specific SOLIDWORKS feature.
25. CW-116757 CSR-21253 System Opening a specific part model with 3 Axis Mill toolpath bound by an "Avoid area" causes SOLIDWORKS to work very slow.
26. CW-116329 CSR-20947 User Interface When Sorting function available under Tool Crib page on Tool Tab for Operation Parameters dialog box is used, it is observed the graphics window and Preview window display a tool different from the tool selected by the user in the tab.
27. CW-115696 CSR-20594 Feature The spline curve extracted by the 'Desolve sketch text' from the stick font 'OLF SimpleSansOC' is not considered by the CAMWorks Engrave or Curve feature. This results in invalid profile.
28. CW-115697 CSR-20594 Feature CAMWorks is unable to create Engrave features using sketches when the stick font "OLF SimpleSansOC" is assigned. An error message regarding invalid profile gets displayed.
29. CW-115081 CSR-20254 Toolpath For the specific assembly, the Contour Mill toolpath generated is incorrect and ends up gouging the part on a group feature in the assembly. This happens when the 'Bottom Finish' option is enabled for the Contour Mill operation.

31. CW-112857 CSR-18917 Mill-Turn For the specific Mill-turn part with ID feature, executing the Generate Operation Plan results in generation of bothStraight and tapered Pipe taps based on programming info present in TechDB while ignoring the Thread tool info assigned by user.
32. CW-112839 CSR-18876 UIF When SOLIDWORKS's Colors Option is set to Dark Background MODE, it becomes difficult to view the CAMWorks Sync Manager user interfaces.
33. CW-111344 CSR-17957 UIF For the specific Turn part, the Tool Station Preview dialog box displays the wrong Station IDs when rearranged/sorted.
34. CW-110532 CSR-17555 Toolpath For the specific part, the Rough Mill toolpath with 'Pocketin' has Rest machining set to 'From WIP'. However, this toolpath does not consider the WIP when the cleanup passis applied. In case of pattern is set to 'Spiral in' or 'Spiral out' too, applying the cleanup pass results in the "Minimum diameter" value not being considered.
35. CW-109892 CSR-17220 UIF Text with the CAMWorks Sync Manager user interfaces get cropped if we set the display scale setting to 200%.
36. CW-106991 CSR-16052 Toolpath For the specific part, when the 'Stay Down' function in theLead-In and Lead-Out for Cut Dept of the Contour Mill toolpath is enabled, the toolpath plunges past the entry point and gouges the part.
37. CW-79381 CSR-4572 Feature Enable CAMWorks Engrave features to be created using SOLIDWORKS text with "OLFSimpleSansOC" font. The font yields better results than the existing CAMWorks font.

CAMWorks for SOLIDWORKSwas the first fully integrated computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) solution designed exclusively to operate in SOLIDWORKS and the first to offer knowledge-based, feature recognition, and associative machining capabilities within SOLIDWORKS. CAMWorks uses the same SOLIDWORKS geometry to generate toolpaths to ensure the part you machine is the same part you've modeled. Toolpath simulation allows users to compare "as designed" parts to "as machined" parts. The part model-to-toolpath associativity in CAMWorks increases machining productivity and lowers manufacturing costs by eliminating time-consuming CAM system rework due to design updates. CAMWorks eliminates the drudgery of CNC programming with Intelligent Machining through automation. Pioneered by Geometric Technologies, this suite of tools automates the generation of toolpaths based on a knowledge-based database. It eliminates hours of complex programming through Automatic Feature Recognition (AFR) that automatically defines prismatic machinable features, while the TechDBTM (Technology Database) defines machining operations to automatically generate accurate toolpaths at the click of a button. CAMWorks machining modules include: 2½ Axis Mill, 3 Axis Mill, Turning, Mill-Turn with 5 Axis Simultaneous Machining Support, 4/5 Axis Simultaneous Machining, and Wire EDM.
CAMWorks 2023combines the benefits of a fully integrated CAD/CAM system with advanced programming technologies such as feature-based programming, automatic feature recognition, knowledge-based machining and TechDB for storing and reusing best practices.
