There was a lot of confusion what was an add-in to Inventor and a vast majority of our customers didn't know they even had CAM tools available to them as they weren't aware of the HSM brand. Prior to our 2020 product launch, each of the collection products had their own brand/identity (HSM, Nastran InCAD, Tolerance Analysis and Nesting Utility). I wrote a blog post that has some of the rational behind the name change for CAM and other products in the collection. What can we expect from HSM in the forseeable future? Is it true that we will be pushed/forced into Fusion to get improvements?
Solidcam/InventorCAM are known names in the CAM world and are using this name for ages now, so using the same name as them is super confusing for (new)people looking up HSM stuff on the internet and will possibly push them into SolidCam/InventorCAM's arms.īugs, lack of fixes, lack of usefull updates, seemingly slowing down improvements and a constant push to Fusion(CAM?).
InventorCAM is a competing CAM system/plugin that is also a certified partner of autodesk, doesn't sound fair to cross them like that.įor the people that don't know this, SolidCAM is the same competing plugin as InventorCAM but for Solidworks. Now there is a bigger gap with HSMworks as well, they don't share anything in the name anymore. If you can’t find an answer in this 200-page guide, you can consult the vast archive of the HSM Post-Processor Forum, and even post your question on this very active forum.The HSM part is now gone and moved into the new name, Inventor CAM. However, the good news is that Autodesk publishes a free manual to guide you through the process, covering the basics of JavaScript and explaining the various sections of a post file. There is unfortunately no user interface changes must be made to the code in JavaScript language.
It can be opened and edited in Notepad or any other text editor. cps post-processor file is merely a text file. Indeed, the “SolidCAD Universal FANUC” post-processor and all the post-processors available on the HSM Post Library website are unlocked and open-source.Ī post.
