It is extremely easy to use and learn, with intuitive screens and many helpful features. You can import CAD files, artwork, signs, or create your designs with the powerful built-in tools. Hypertherm's expertise ensures that the best cutting parameters are used for each job. This results in sharper corners and cleaner edges as well as better hole quality. Intelligent auto nesting strategies make it easier to nest jobs quickly and efficiently. Common Line Cutting and Chain and Bridge Cutting modules can improve efficiency and reduce time and consumable wear. Unlimited access to technical support, training and software updates, all at no additional cost.

IMSverify is a unique NC verification tool that checks the code that will run on the machine. This goes beyond the CAM system's APT or CL file verification. You can be certain that the part will cut correctly by verifying the G-code that will run on your machine. Complex machining operations and multiaxis machines increase the likelihood of programming errors. These can lead to incorrect or incomplete material removal, interference with machine components and fixtures, damage to the part and/or the machine. Full machine simulation with clash detection allows you to analyze the entire machining environment. This includes all machine components, fixtures and tools. The most accurate verification of material removal is possible with solids-based simulation. IMSverify allows you to import stock and fixture information from your CAM system as solids.

CNC Software for Non-Machinists. MeshCAM is the fastest method to generate gcode. The goal is to create a CAD file that can be used to guide your mill in cutting it. You don't need to be an expert in CAM software. What you really want is parts. MeshCAM is for people who want to make parts right away. MeshCAM can be used with almost any 3D CAD program. It supports the most popular 3D file formats, STL or DXF. You can also load 2D DXF files in R12 format to create 2D parts. Sometimes you will need a part that cannot easily be designed using a traditional CAD program. Sometimes, you don't even need a CAD program. Don't worry if this sounds like you. Any image file (JPG or BMP) can be opened in MeshCAM to convert it into a 3D surface that can easily be machined. This feature can be used to create parts that are almost impossible to produce with traditional CAD programs.
