It can import 2D vector (DXF), SVG, AI, EPS, EPS, AMS, AI), 3D geometric (STL, DXF), bitmap (any digital image), and calculate CNC toolpaths for the design. Finally, it can export a toolpath file to the machine you have selected - there is a long list of supported machines. DeskProto is available as a free, entry, expert, and multi-axis edition. Hobbyists can purchase a low-cost hobby licence for the last three.

Description

MachiningCloud is a comprehensive cloud-based platform designed for CNC manufacturers, machinists, and manufacturing engineers, focusing on tooling data and pre-CAM planning. It offers a wide array of searchable cutting-tool information sourced directly from manufacturers, which includes 3D models, dimensions, detailed drawings, and relevant application data. Users have the ability to select tools, create and manage tool assemblies, assess feeds and speeds, plan machining operations, and organize their tool inventory along with crib records. Additionally, they can export tool or job information to various CAM systems, making the workflow more efficient. The platform also facilitates the generation of shop-floor documentation and enables users to prepare for tool purchases through authorized suppliers. With its web application, standardized tooling information is seamlessly integrated from product research and tool selection into CAM programming and production readiness. Furthermore, enterprise licensing provides API access to the catalog, allowing for data licensing that supports integrations with CAM, ERP, and tool-management systems, enhancing overall operational effectiveness. In this way, MachiningCloud strives to streamline the machining process, ensuring that users have all the necessary tools at their fingertips.
