In addition, the machining time estimated in CAMWorks provides an important piece of information for estimating product manufacturing cost without physically manufacturing the product. Capabilities in CAMWorks allow you to select CNC machines and tools, extract or create machinable features, define machining operations, and simulate and visualize machining toolpaths. CAMWorks provides excellent capabilities for machining simulations in a virtual environment. CAMWorks is embedded in SOLIDWORKS as a fully integrated module. CAMWorks is a virtual machining tool designed to increase your productivity and efficiency by simulating machining operations on a computer before creating a physical product. This book is written to help you learn the core concepts and steps used to conduct virtual machining using CAMWorks. Incorporates cutter location data verification by reviewing the generated G-codes.

So i have choosen CamWorks to start this with. I know this sounds absurd but after 2 years of wanting to know it, it is a little less absurd.

I have decided for once and for a while to dedicate every minute of my life until i have full understanding of creating virtual machines and postprocessors associated with it.
