DeskProto is a 3DCAM program that can be used to create 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis CNC milling machines. It can import 2D vector (DXF), SVG, AI, EPS, EPS, AMS, AI), 3D geometric (STL, DXF), bitmap (any digital image), and calculate CNC toolpaths for the design. Finally, it can export a toolpath file to the machine you have selected - there is a long list of supported machines. DeskProto is available as a free, entry, expert, and multi-axis edition. Hobbyists can purchase a low-cost hobby licence for the last three.
Description
FreeMILL is a complimentary milling module that operates as part of our commercial CNC software, designed specifically for programming CNC mills and routers. This entirely free CAM software imposes no restrictions regarding time limits, the number of attempts, saving capabilities, or lines of code! Users can create toolpaths where the cutting tool moves along a series of parallel planes to shape their desired geometry. Additionally, it allows the generation of both Roughing and Finishing toolpaths, and provides full simulation capabilities for cutting and material processes. Outputting G-code for your selected CNC milling machine is also part of its features. MecSoft Corporation, founded in 1997, is a pioneering developer of both standalone and integrated CAD/CAM software solutions catering to the subtractive (CNC machining) and additive (3D printing) manufacturing sectors. Headquartered in Irvine, CA, MecSoft is committed to creating easy-to-use, robust, and cost-effective CAD/CAM software solutions that meet the diverse needs of our users. Their dedication to innovation ensures that customers receive top-notch support and continuously updated technology.
