SWOOD Manufacturing Solution
CAM software for wood CNC and milling machines
A woodworking CAM software to easily link design information to CNC router or mill machines and generate necessary production documentation for machining processes.
Shape Recognition
Thanks to the geometric recognition algorithm, most of the common CNC machining operations are detected automatically: pockets, contours, grooves, drills, saw cuts, and Lamello cuts. As a result, most programs can be created automatically and consistently for CNC routers and mill machines.
CNC Simulation Trajectories
Preview the full program within the simulation with the material removal feature. This includes the whole machining environment that can detect all the collisions between the head, the table, the tool and the part.
Machining Management
Woodworking CNC software controls motorized machining tables: vacuum suction units, bars, clamps; and manages special tools: edge banding units, profile tools for joinery, drilling blocks, horizontal spindles and many others.
Program Export
Export your toolpaths/trajectories to a CNC router or mill machine with our post-processors directly from SOLIDWORKS. Post-processors are available for HOMAG (WoodWOP), BIESSE (BiesseWorks, bSolid, ISO), SCM (XILOG, MAESTRO, ISO), Felder (TPA, F4Integrate), HOLZHER (NC HOPS), and many more.
Up to 5 Simultaneous Axis
As a complete woodworking CNC software, SWOOD CAM can create and manage 3 to 5 axis programs based on your projects and needs.
Adapting to Design Changes
The programs are updated by simple recalculation for each change of dimension or parameter on the design making it easier to operate CNC routers or mill machines.
SWOOD CAM is seamlessly integrated within SOLIDWORKS as SWOOD is a gold-certified product
A complete manufacturing solution
More Reliability
All changes made in the design area are automatically propagated to the manufacturing area: updating of paths, programs, production data, etc. This avoids many errors due to last-minute changes and ensures consistency between the different parts of the assemblies.
Automatic Machining
SWOOD CAM is a tool specifically developed for the woodworking industry. It automatically performs the most common machining operations in this industry: drilling, grooving, pocketing, sawing, contouring, Lamello or Clamex type machining, etc.
Time-Saving
All of this automation makes it possible to create machining programs for the wood CNC machine much faster and also to update them in case of modifications on the parts and assemblies.
Adapting to Wood CNC Machines
SWOOD CAM adapts to specific technologies for the woodworking industry: Router, drill, edgebander, panel saw nesting, carpentry, 3 axis, 5 axis, etc.
Support Various wood CNC Machine Brands
Anderson America, Bacci, Biesse, Casadei Busellato, CMS, Felder, Hamuel Reichenbacher, Homag, Holzher, Ima Schelling, Mala, Masterwood, Pade, SCM, Stema, Uniteam, Weinmann, etc.
Optimize CNC Nesting Process
CNC nesting software to nest and optimize project parts onto a wood panel to reduce material waste. SWOOD Nesting is a bolt-on to SWOOD CAM.
