I'll post additional information as I receive it. Thirdly, I've taken Boswell's suggestion and made contct with BobCAD/CAM, just to see if I can get some kind of discount. I've sent an inquiry to find out if it also works with Atom. But now they're mentioning a free (though limited) version called "Freemill" for Alibre Design. I'd originlly mentioned that their software is $600 and up. They do list a US office in Wisconsin, but no phone #.
And the only phone number anywhere on the website appears to be one in Russia. I went to their website again, and tried to ask about pricing on two different message pages. The first was sprutCAM (mentioned in my original posting. Toward that end, I've sent some inquiries to Solidworks (which apparently has a CAM add-on) and taken a second look at several options for Alibre add-ons. I've been pretty busy with a number of other projects since I first posted this, but I'm finally getting ready for some serious looking and doing. and are they worth the cost?ĮZ CAM is $1K for Express, $2500 for an un-named medium version, and $4K for Pro. (PS - the Alibre upgrades are pretty spendy, so I'll stick with what I have.)ĭoes anybody have experience with any of the aforementioned programs. He told me to go to their website and look at EZ CAM, Spurt CAM, or Mecsoft Alibre CAM-Mill. While on the phone with the salesman, I asked about CAM. Got a sales call today from Alibre, soliciting me to buy one of their super-duper upgrades. But CamBam is pretty primitive (very few features and viewing capability, weird, poorly documented parameter lists, etc) and I'm looking for something a bit better. But Fusion seems to have started playing games with its users - strong hints that it's about to get expensive.Īt the moment I'm using CamBam to convert Alibre. I did try Fusion 360, and was able to make some 3D parts, using the native CAM capability. My favorite CAD software, CREO Elements Direct (formerly Solid Designer) is ungodly expensive for a home shop, but I found a free version - which is unfortunately severely limited in available output formats. The mill came fully set up with Centroid and has been working well. I bought a DynaMyte DM2400 CNC mill about a year ago and have been exploring CNC.
