I have been fighting Solidcam on holes. I actually just wrote some gcode by hand for some. After watching the video, I realize that I wasn’t clicking on the correct icons. Thanks for this.
For your center drills, solidworks needs depth changes on each individual hole. Under Operation Parameters > Feature Options > Features/Feature List you need to go through each hole and set the depth, otherwise you'll go all the way through by default.
Hi Professor Cameron, Thank you so much for your lecture videos on Solidworks CAM. It really helps me a lot! I'm currently doing research for my master's degree and I would like to ask some questions. I hope you can help me to clear some doubts about Solidworks CAM. First, does face milling in Solidworks CAM can't define wall/boss like in SolidCAM? Second, how pockets are defined in Solidworks CAM, because it says that in SolidCAM they are defined by loops, is it the same for SolidWorks CAM? Lastly, do you have any idea about the tool engagement angle specifically from the manufacturing engineering point of view.? Sorry, I do have a lot of questions, but I would really appreciate it if you can help me with these. Thank you so much!
Thank you for your amazing videos! You have taught me SolidCam. I really appreciate it

I came looking for this answer in the video and found it here, ty Sr
The 2 center drills are going all the way through because the depth needs to be set for reach hole in the feature list on the feature options tab.
Thank you for the info. Great help.
Thank you!!
شكرا لك
professor Cameron thank you so much for all your great tutorials, please if you can go further deep understand on how to program program taps.
iam trying to program peck drilling but it doesnt show pecking in simulation

I Want to contact with you sir. How it is possible?
Thank you.
And tell me if the machine is homemade, which post processor to choose?
