I use 4th axis positioning extensively, can you create local work planes for toolpath creation, and will the local planes code from "world origin" for 4th axis positioning? Just wondering as I have not looked at this package.

We haven't bought Espirt99 yet, which is now Espirt2000. This is only because of internal money issues. However, it is what we will buy once I can get it funded. It still looks to be the best at 4-axis multi-part production type machining. It 100% solids based. Reads native Solidworks files. All marco support is based on Visual Basic. Post is easy to customize. Software also creates set-up info. using Microsoft Excel. It wouldn't be a waste of your time to checkout this package. They have a Demo CD available. Let me would what you think if you do look at it.
