Autodesk HSMWorks 2019.3 build R4.43461

Autodesk team has announced the release of HSMWorks 2019.3 build R4.43461, is an integrated 2.5- to 5-axis CAD/CAM programming solution for SOLIDWORKS.

Autodesk HSMWorks 2019.3 Update - Release Notes: Build R43461 / 30 January 2019:

New in this Version
- When there is more than one body in the model, no automatic selection of all the bodies will be done when creating a new Setup. (#8140)
- Added the ability for a grooving tool to go a specified distance below the inner radius while facing the part in a groove turning operation. (#11148)
- Fixed a problem with the retract at the shifted position when expanding the Fine Boring cycle for the post processor. (#11350)
- Avoid creating an extra tool entry when creating a new tool. (#11944)
- Added a new parameter "make sharp corners" to a profile turning toolpath to ensure that outside corners are sharp and not rounded. (#12010)
- Fixed an issue for Turning Profile operations in which leads were not generated at an angle with respect to the toolpath direction when "Use Fixed Lead Direction" was turned off. The problem occurred in both roughing and finishing passes. (#9944, #10284)
- Fixed excessive tool library load time with Harvey tools installed. (#11587)
Changes to toolpath generation
- For the Engrave toolpath, improved the ordering to reduce the distance which the tool jumps when moving between letters in engraved text. (#4968)
- Fixed a problem in the Pocket strategy that could cause an operation to freeze and not finish. (#10484)
- Fixed an issue with the Turning Profile and Turning Groove operations where the tool was not cutting to the inner radius if there was a hole with a diameter greater than the inner radius. (#9921, #10106)
- Fixed an issue where gouge checking for Turning Profile leads was incorrectly being done for the tool nose center instead of the tool contact point. (#11298)
Changes to API
- Fixed missing update of parameters when using HSMWorks_setObjectToolById().
- Added advanced API HSMWorks_setObjectGeometry2() to allow geometry override entity flags to be set.

About Autodesk HSMWorks. Autodesk HSM software bundle provides the best value in integrated CAM software available. Included are HSM add-ons for SOLIDWORKS and Autodesk Inventor. Integrated CAM helps CNC programmers, designers, and engineers rapidly produce machined parts in one seamless workflow, while maintaining model associativity for quick updates to part changes. Whether you are working with multiple CAD formats or starting from pencil sketches, Integrated CAM with your design software is the simplest and fastest way to machine your parts.

HSMWorks is designed from the ground up to work inside SolidWorks, providing a logical extension of the parametric SolidWorks assembly environment into the CAM world. Experienced SolidWorks users will feel right at home working with HSMWorks and will be able to create high-quality toolpaths within minutes. New users will benefit from the comprehensive 2D and 3D CAD capabilities of SolidWorks mechanical design solutions and quickly extend any knowledge gained to the CAM process, resulting in improved design quality and reduced product development time.


About Autodesk. Autodesk helps people imagine, design and create a better world. Everyone—from design professionals, engineers and architects to digital artists, students and hobbyists—uses Autodesk software to unlock their creativity and solve important challenges.
