Compare HSMWorks vs. ONGAA CAM

Create and produce CAM toolpaths seamlessly without the need to switch between different software applications. Streamline your operations and minimize rework with integrated 2.5- to 5-axis milling, turning, and mill-turn capabilities right within your CAD environment. With a Fusion 360 subscription, HSMWorks is readily available to you. You can leverage a user-friendly interface that integrates effortlessly with robust design tools, thanks to the complete compatibility with SOLIDWORKS. Enhance your productivity with an extensive range of 2.5 and 3-axis milling strategies, ensuring efficient workflows. Moreover, simplify machine setup and achieve tighter tolerances through intuitive multi-axis programming. Experience the advantage of visualizing your machine tool's motion with simulations that encompass the spindle, fixtures, and all essential components of the machine. Easily program turning tasks, from straightforward 2-axis operations to complex mill-turn strategies, all while maintaining a streamlined workflow. Additionally, gain access to sophisticated design capabilities by associatively linking your SOLIDWORKS files to Fusion 360, making this feature exclusively available with your Fusion 360 subscription. This integration not only enhances your design process but also fosters collaboration between teams.

ONGAA CAM was designed specifically for WOOD CNC machining by HOMAG BIESSE HOLZHER. It allows you to create programs directly from SOLIDWORKS. You can design and apply toolpaths in SOLIDWORKS without converting or using DXF files. The files created by ONGAA CAM comply with all MPR, BPP, CIX, NCHOPS and TPACAD standards. They do not require any manual editing. There are no additional software costs. Open Solidworks and a component to use ONGAA CAM. Next, start programming or let the wizard program for you. Click generate program, then copy the program to your CNC. Run the part program.
