    CAMWORKS Coordinate System

    I am new to cam works so I am trying to get a few things figured out. I am having an issue with the coordinate system not matching the mill part setup. For some reason my Y and Z are swtiched around.

    Camworks coord system is pretty much identical to SolidCam.
    I'm guessing you are looking at the default alignment rather than creating a new coord system.
    I recommend starting with some youtube vids on the coordinate system... either SolidCam or CamWorks will do

    You need first to define your part coordinate system in camworks and just after that to make setups. Any mill part setup is related to the defined coordinate system.
