NX CAM Reviews & Product Details

The functionalities like Feature based machining and Post hub are really helpful to shoot the component getting machined at no time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Still have limitation on handling probing cycles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate NX CAM for automated programming which reduces a lot of manual effort and its user-friendly development tools. I like its versatility and good UI design, which makes it very easy for me to find the commands I need. There is also a search command option where, if I don't remember the exact location of a command, I can type the name, and it lists out all the commands with similar keywords. Setting up NX CAM was very easy for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think NX CAM could improve on its 5-axis toolpath strategies and offer more tool axis options. It needs more flexibility and fewer limitations in this area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's fast. I don't really know what to say more about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some times it's a bit to much focused on NC programming. I'm using it more for robotics, and I think there is still some work to do in that field Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Your simulation based on the digital twin is excellent; it allows you to validate the machining with complete safety before going to the machine, drastically reducing errors and setup times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the interface is overwhelming due to the number of menus and available parameters. The initial setup of the post-processor and templates can also be a complex and slow process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use NX CAM for CNC programming and tool path generation. I really like its seamless integration between design and manufacturing, which handles complex parts efficiently. It also saves programming time and improves overall machine precision. We switched to NX CAM for better integration, advanced machining capabilities, and improved handling of complex tool paths. The ability to address multiple axis machines with great efficiency and more accurate simulation and collision detection also stood out for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Learning curve especially for new users since the interface and workflow can feel complex initially. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Simulation is working great and best use for die and mould Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pricing is bit hinger and of it could be bit cheaper Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that NX CAM is easy to use and that it can take a lot of different formats of data. The tools and features available are great, and there's a lot of support to help out. I also appreciate the service and support from the health section, which has been helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The NX CAM product line and knowledge base in designing could be improved. It would be great to have a material database upgrade, especially for automotive sectors. A wider variety of material options and a more comprehensive database should be there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Modeling and drafting and pipe designing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only 2 d drafting is very different in the NX tool which is possible in your earliest idea Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the integration between the CAD and CAM ecosystem of our company with NX CAM. It helps in keeping track of the whole product lifecycle management, and the reworks in the build preparation are faster and smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the stability and repeatability of the newly developed AM features like body lattice, print marks, STL file printer, and other printers, with different CAD models each designed differently, to be challenging. Also, switching from previous software to NX CAM wasn't easy because NX uses CAD rules, while the other software didn't use a parametric approach. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate that NX CAM reduces overall programming time and handles complex jobs effectively. I also really like the integrated NX CAD and Simulation platform because it allows me to design products, generate toolpaths, and validate designs all on the same platform, making it a single source of truth.

The UI could be more user-friendly, and the Post processor could be easier to use. The command dialogues need to be easier, and there should be better help documentation. For the Post processor, more help documents are needed to easily understand the templates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
