![]() I would look at Cut2D, V-Carve Pro or Aspire to begin with. ![]() While "Cut3D" is a very powerful application, it is by far the least intuitive of their venue. ![]() Of the applications I have used, the Vectric offerings are the only ones I have found even remotely intuitive. Sadly every "tutorial" I have followed (CAMBAM, VECTRIC, BOBCAD-CAM, EDGECAM, MASTERCAM, RHINO3D and a few others) make "following the tutorial" very simple, but the reality of "starting from scratch" is quite different as a newbie. I have had NO LUCK importing vector drawings from various CAD programs to any of Vectric's software (I am certain this is some flaw in my methodology), but using either Aspire or V-Carve Pro, it is very easy to "re-draw" a part and define tool-paths (I would STRONGLY advise watching their videos). V-Carve Pro is (best I can tell) as much a CAD program as it is a CAM program. All of the software (Including Vectrics) is powerful, and therefore assumes you have some idea what you are doing.ĭO NOT assume if "Cut2D" is "good", that you should get "Cut3D", this would be a HUGE mistake. The Vectric software is certainly the most user friendly I have run across, but you need to understand that in the world of CAD/CAM, "user-friendly" is kind of like taking a crash course in jet-fuel engineering and suddenly making the quantum leap to designing jet engines, LOL. I am lucky to be in a unique position of having been able to try-out several CAD/CAM packages. ![]() I have a great deal of experience with embedded controllers & software in general, but have found the world of CAM & Controllers to be a-typical of most software/firmware environments. ![]()
