I wrote a blog post that has some of the rational behind the name change for CAM and other products in the collection. What can we expect from HSM in the forseeable future? Is it true that we will be pushed/forced into Fusion to get improvements?

Solidcam/InventorCAM are known names in the CAM world and are using this name for ages now, so using the same name as them is super confusing for (new)people looking up HSM stuff on the internet and will possibly push them into SolidCam/InventorCAM's arms.īugs, lack of fixes, lack of usefull updates, seemingly slowing down improvements and a constant push to Fusion(CAM?). InventorCAM is a competing CAM system/plugin that is also a certified partner of autodesk, doesn't sound fair to cross them like that.įor the people that don't know this, SolidCAM is the same competing plugin as InventorCAM but for Solidworks. Now there is a bigger gap with HSMworks as well, they don't share anything in the name anymore. The HSM part is now gone and moved into the new name, Inventor CAM.
