Yes, and no.
SolidCAM works only in SolidWorks.
However, the same company also publishes InventorCAM ( http://www.inventorcam.com/ ), which is effectively SolidCAM for Autodesk Inventor.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SolidCAM
Thanku you friend
The question I have is, when is SolidCAM going to be a plugin for MasterCAM, Gibbs, Esprit, SurfCAM and all the others that folks already have and paid a fortune for?
Everytime I tell my buddies how good I think SolidCAM is, they tell me how much they already have invested in their existing systems. If SoldiCAM could plugijn to them everybody wins!
Before you ask, no, I didn't have to pass a drug test.
I think I should get a % for this awesome idea!
Great idea, but I think MasterCAM et al would hit the roof and nobody would benefit except the lawyers (and they have quite enough money to be going on with).
Something I came across some years ago in the aircraft industry (where companies can have thousands of seats) is a 'swap-out' where CAM company A offers a user with CAM company B software a 'one for one' swap. I don't know if that would happen in tough times like now though.
