What's Included
CAMWorks
Machining made easy!
CAMWorks is an easy to use intuitive solids based CAM solution that helps manufacturers increase productivity and profitability through best-in-class  technologies and adaptable automation tools that maximize machining efficiencies. CAMWorks seamless integration within SolidWorks allows for instant changes from the part to the model and thereby eliminates time consuming CAM system rework due to design updates. CAMWorks thus enabling true associative machining. CAMWorks helps manufacturers across aerospace, automotive, electronics and medical industries optimize and evolve their automation process.
Minimize Efforts!
CAMWorks eliminates the drudgery of CNC programming with Intelligent Machining through automation. CAMWorks automates the generation of tool paths based on a knowledge based database. CAMWorks eliminates hours of complex programming through Automatic Feature Recognition (AFR) that automatically defines prismatic machinable features, while the TechDBTM (Technology Database) defines machining operations to automatically generate accurate toolpaths at the click of a button for turning, 2.5 axis, 3 axis, 4 axis and 5 axis machining. Intergrated projects provide experience in milling, turning, router and plasma cutting technologies. CAMWorks imports popular file formats including: STEP, IGS and Parasolid files for tool path generation and simulation.

DFM Pro 
DFMPro is an easy-to-use design for manufacturability (DFM) tool for designers and manufacturing engineers which is seamlessly integrated into SolidWorks. It facilitates upstream manufacturability validation and identification of areas of a design that are difficult, expensive or impossible to manufacture.
Need for DFMPro
The design stage is considered to be the most crucial part in the product lifecycle process. It is fundamental to the conception and development of new products. Approximately 80% or more of the lifecycle costs are committed by decisions taken during the design stage. Thus it becomes important to detect and eliminate mistakes in design stage itself as the costs rise exponentially if they are spotted in later stages of product lifecycle.

Iterative Design Process
In the iterative approach to the design process, the designer needs to receive early feedback from the manufacturing department to address any manufacturability concerns before the design is frozen. This methodology is termed as "Design for Manufacturability" or DFM. However, DFM is generally feasible in an environment where the manufacturing and design departments are located in close proximity. In the 3D software world of today where web collaboration portals dot the landscape, CAMWorks allows designers the opportunity to prove the manufacturability of design concept anywhere in the world.
Easy to learn and use
DFM Pro performs common manufacturability checks related to machining (milling, turning), sheet metal fabrication, manufacturing tolerance and part attribute. DFM Pro provides reasons and suggestions on manufacturability issues. DFM Pro generates analysis reports and configures rules. DFM Pro is viewable with any standard internet browser.
SolidWorks Certification Prep Bundle
DFEA provides a complete library suite of the very best in SolidWorks self-paced instruction. The suite includes Core Concepts, Drawings, 3D Skills, Advanced Parts, Advanced Assemblies, Sheet Metal Design and Update Training.
The SolidWorks Certification Study Course is a comprehensive review of topics covered in the updated 2008/9 version of the Certified SolidWorks Associate and Certified SolidWorks Professional exams. The course begins by providing an overview of the certification exam. The student is then presented with sample problems which map to certification exam requirements including basic +advanced part and assembly design. Additional topics include but are not limited to: in-context design; drawing views and COSMOSXpress stress simulation.
Note: SolidWorks training content is customized for both the K-12 and Post-Secondary markets.
CAD/CAM Machining Curriculum 
The objective is for the student to learn how to successfully program and operate a Computer Numerical Control (CNC) milling machine, lathe, router and plasma cutter.
Curriculum was developed for students with a basic technical background but little or no machining experience. Curriculum delivers what is necessary to make prototype and short-production run parts on a Vertical Milling Center (VMC). This program will teach students how to plan, set up, program and operate a machine. Curriculum tutorials will enable students to become better designers and understand the practice, challenges and opportunities CNC machining offers. This program presents best practices while considering the types of parts and machining operations students will be confronted with in the work place.
K-12 Edition features 
2 year program (daily, weekly, quarterly and annual curriculum programs). Instructor Resources include: teacher plans, projects, topical powerpoints with structure to teach SolidWorks. Curriculum segments include: CSWA, Engineering Design, DFM Pro, Computer Aided Manufacturing, CNC Machine Operation, and Manufacturing Processes. K-12 Edition program was designed to High School level competencies and to improve math, science and applied technology performance.
College Edition features
same as K-12 Edition + SolidProfessor training program. SolidProfessor training program was designed to enable industry professionals in getting up to speed quickly on SolidWorks and Integrated CAM, and DFM Pro. College Edition program is industry driven and was designed to foster student thought about design from an engineering and manufacturing perspective.
