CAMARILLO, Calif - Surfware, Inc., developer of SURFCAM CAD/CAM systems, announced today that the upcoming release of its flagship product, SURFCAM V5, will debut in booth 335 at SolidWorks World 2010 in Anaheim, CA.

“SURFCAM has been a certified SolidWorks CAM partner for over 5 years and this is a continuing relationship which we at Surfware are quite proud of,” says Peter Marton, General Manager of Surfware, Inc. “Now, with the release of SURFCAM V5, our SolidWorks customers will have even more new features and functionality, giving them world class precision and control over their NC programming environment with their SolidWorks data.”

SURFCAM’s powerful associativity enables our users to open native SolidWorks files directly into SURFCAM, completely eliminating the translation process. SURFCAM automatically recognizes any design revisions in the solid model and offers to regenerate only affected toolpaths. With this seamless interoperability, SURFCAM users can quickly adapt to design changes.

“Our SolidWorks users and customers require a high degree of freedom and flexibility, designing in SolidWorks allows users to make design changes with confidence. Because of SURFCAM’s seamless associativity to their SolidWorks files, users enjoy not only increased productivity, but flexibility as well,” said Marton.

SURFCAM V5 includes many new features and added functionality to 4- and 5-axis roughing toolpaths as well as an enhanced Operations Manager, Cview visualization, 3-axis Z-roughing and upgrades to the lathe package. In addition to these upgrades are substantial updates to both 2- and 3-axis TrueMill toolpaths.

SURFCAM V5 supports SolidWorks 2010 parts, assemblies, sketches and configurations.

The event will take place at the Anaheim Convention Center and last from January 31 to February 3, 2010.
