Whats new in NX 10 CAM?
(OP)
After looking though the whats new documentation for NX 10 CAM, I'm disappointed to see most of the changes for CAM were done in NX9.02
and not what I would have expected to see. No real changes in 3axis milling. I love the software, but we also spend a lot on yearly maintenance and we primarily use it on the CAM side. When will they ever look at updating Cavity Milling to include STEP UP machining to make better use
our tooling and time savings. Volumill and Mastercam have had this for quite awhile.

While I can't speak for the CAM organization, I suspect that this is going to be their approach going forward, concentrating on the MR releases for the majority of their enhancements and updates.

I would never go back after using NX beginning with NX7.0. The time savings is incredible and can't imagine using any other.

Although there were enhancements in NX 9.0.3 MP1, this was an exception that we do not plan to repeat. MPs should generally be for PR fixes only.
CAM users should read the release notes and pay special attention to the release timing. Since NX 9.0.3 development ended after NX 10, the CAM enhancements added in 9.0.3 MP1 and MP2 will become available in NX 10.0.1.
We have also included a section entitled "Maximizing the benefits of multi-core hardware with NX CAM". In the release notes, go to
NX 10 Caveats and Product Notes > CAM > NX 10 Manufacturing Product Notes.
