Description
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
SOLIDWORKS® CAM, which is powered by CAMWorks, employs rules-based technology to seamlessly merge design and manufacturing within a single application, fostering collaboration between design and manufacturing teams through a unified software tool and 3D model. This add-on for all SOLIDWORKS CAD versions allows for earlier preparation of designs for manufacturability during the development cycle. Tasks related to manufacturing that previously required the completion of a design can now be executed simultaneously with the design phase. As a result, SOLIDWORKS CAM solutions facilitate a swift transition from design to manufacturing via an integrated workflow. The SOLIDWORKS CAM Standard version enables quick programming of individual milled parts and configurations directly within the SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD environment, ensuring efficiency. Users also have comprehensive control over establishing rules within SOLIDWORKS CAM to align with their company standards and implement Tolerance-Based Machining (TBM), ultimately enhancing productivity and consistency in the manufacturing process. This integration represents a significant advancement in how design and manufacturing can work together harmoniously.
