Hi Tom,
Synergy , weber systems cam has a lathe module. You can download
a 30 day free trial with everything enabled and give it a try. I don't
use the
lathe portion but use the mill part of the package everyday. :-)
Web site is: www.webersys.com. Call Bob at *(262) 782-0181 for more
details
I've used an online nesting service that worked great. I think it cost
$5.00 per nest or so, but the same nesting software if I were to buy it
was thousands of dollars.
The money saved by doing effective nesting was large.. making the $5.00
per nest charge insignificant.
It will be interestin
You are probably right. I am not a fan of the subscription software model,
especially when you have to be online to have access to most features.
However, I see the value in paying monthly for some and in the case of Fusion
360 it is a very powerful CAD/CAM solution that normally cost thousands
hi
i think that Fusion 360will be bad news for small cad/cam companies.
structure where need to pay only every month is much better than buy
something that you may not need it few month etc

Fusion 360 does not have turning cam, I was a beta tester for the milling CAM
that it does contain. They hope to
Also, you can use Gedit with Arc Generator to build a G code file. I
just need to add the XZ to the Arc Generator if your interested.

As said all ops on a lathe can be done with ngcgui even profiles if you
have the G code for the profile.
The latest list of subroutines I use is here:

Taper OD
Radius OD
Thread OD
Drill

You only really need a CAM package for parts that are contoured. I.E.
not regular OD, Face, Id and such. For the standard stuff I use NGCGUI
and LatheMacro. Both of these are found under the example configs.
For the contour stuff I use Cambam. The lathe module is not very strong
and does no
Does anyone know of a relatively inexpensive CAM package for turning? We use
Sheetcam and (to a lesser extent) MeshCAM for milling and jet cutting
toolpaths. We are working on a lathe retrofit and would like to find a good
standalone CAM package that can generate lathe toolpaths. The facility
