    Hey Al, I see your very helpful here among all the BS that goes with it!

    I have spoken with the salesman at Bobcad a few times and they call quite often :crazy: but I haven't purchased any software yet. My machines are Labvolt and are pretty basic, I use them with the software they provided.

    I'm looking to do a little more with the machines so can you tell me for certain that Bobcad can create a tool path for them? they can import G-M codes but that's all I know? I did download the free trial last year but never could get it to do anything.
    Thanks,Bobby
    BobCAD's V25 4 axis standard now offers 4 axis rotary tool path based off of solids.

    So let's say you have a 3D solid that looks like this:

    Using the 4 Axis Rotary tool paths you have the option to cut along or around the model.

    The cut model ends up looking like this:

    Productivity Features:

    In addition to the many CAD and CAM features found in BobCAD CAM we have also added features that can only be found on systems costing thousands more. Our simulation software will simulate actual machine movements based on tool length, diameter, arbor & holder. Standard reporting tools for operations, run time, feed and rapid move length and stock left over. Giving you a complete view of how your part will be machined and if any tool path features need to be added or adjusted. Giving even the most novice of user the confidence to complete their programming and move on to the next project. In addition we included RS-232 communication for transferring you cnc files to the machine controller.
