[@gizmoguyar]

Are there any tutorials that explain what all of the different feature types are? I'm totally stuck at this step (creating features). I don't understand the different between all of the options, pocket, open pocket, slot, face, contour, etc.

How would you go about setting up a post processor for Solidworks CAM? Have to be done by vendor?

please make a many videos please please

[@RezaAbdolahi]

Thanks for your helpful video , in my Solidworks cam,most of machine names such az 4ax and 5 ax are deactivated would you please tell me how do I activate it ,thanks

[@CADimensions]

Hi Reza. They are deactivated because its part of the CAM Professional license. CAM Professional includes 4th and 5th axis pre-positioning so it’s required in order to activate those machines. Let us know if you have any further questions!

[@corabica3483]

is that possible to know the required cutting forces to accomplish the part with solidworks cam? thank you in advance

[@CADimensions]

Unfortunately SOLIDWORKS CAM does not indicate cutting forces. I know with some other CAM packages they require add-ins to output that information so you would have to look in to a third party vendor.
