The TechDB must be checked out if you are importing, since write access is required to make changes to the TechDB.cwdb file. Your TechDB.cwdb is the only file that needs to be checked out. Note, a back-up of the original TechDB file in the newest version of CAMWorks TechDB folder C:CAMWorksDataCAMWorks2021圆4TechDB Backup of TechDB.cwdbįor SOLIDWORKS CAM C:ProgramDataSOLIDWORKSSOLIDWORKS CAM 2021TechDB Backup of TechDB.cwdb But when complete, a green “Data Migration is done successfully” will appear. The importing will take a little bit for the data to import. NOTE: I would also recommend creating a back-up of the active TechDB in case something goes wrong. Select what data you want to import, such as, Mill, Turn, Mill-Turn or Wire EDM, depending on what applies to you. Quick reminder, in my example, I am upgrading to 2021 from 2020.

CLOSE SOLIDWORKS so only the TechDB windows remains.Ĭlick on the Browse button, to navigate and find the TechDB you would like to upgrade to the latest version. We see a warning that SOLIDWORKS should be closed.

VoluMill’s unique approach to high speed material removal allows the programmer to determine the optimum material removal rate for any combination of part geometry, material, machine, and cutting tool. Program Smarter, Machine Faster! The high-performance roughing module, which is fully integrated in CAMWorks, combines optimal milling paths and maximum material removal with minimized machining times. The result is increased efficiency and utilization of machines, tools, labor and materials. VoluMill is well suited for machining soft as well as hard materials that are hard to chip, such as titanium, nickel-based alloys or stainless steel. CAMWorks® VoluMill™ is ideal for complex 3-D shapes and prismatic parts as its algorithms result in more intelligent toolpaths to machine pockets, slots, and arbitrary shapes.
