At Solidworks World 2018, the power of design and fabrication is a cornerstone to the company’s motto. With every new update, it brings new tools to machinists and manufacturers to ensure they have accurate production parts.

The showcase highlights how a designer can use Solidworks CAM to take their part from the mill all the way to inspection and engraving.
