GeoSolidPro is an independent CAD program that extracts SolidWorks part geometry information for CamLink programming on a Mazatrol control. This reduces the time required to input part geometry and reduces the chance of programming errors by extracting information directly from a part design. The GeoSolidPro software can also import other CAD formats in addition to SolidWorks. The software is said to allow programmers to use all the part creation and manipulation features of SolidWorks, in addition to the Mazatrol programming features of CamLink.
