A friend of mine that owns a shop bought Bob cad and about 3 months later replaced it. We use One-CNC here to program our kitamura VMC. It's much less $$$ than Masturd cam and works great !

GibbsCAM here, but it's pricey. I've heard good things about Rhino, but I've never tried it.

Surfcam $4000.00 a seat $800.00 a year maintenance Up grads can run $2000.00 to $6000.00 You gotta really want to do this. I've used systems that run $100k A seat. It depends on how hard you want to play. Not trying to scare you off just giving you a heads up. Mayhem Eng. |
