Best tool path generator for CNC

[Dale Farrell]

Morning,
you could look at Vcarve Pro from vectric.
I’ve recently started using this & am very pleased with it.
There’s a trial version for download that lets you get to grips with the software without actually outputting a job.
Hope this helps.

yep. I can second Vectric for our AXYZ, we are now running that without issues.

well we evaluated Artcam with Vectric… basically Vectric has most of Artcam features and works very similar at a fraction of the price. Artcam was close but the demo I was sent was buggy when making multiple toolpaths, so we couldn’t test it correctly, we contacted Artcam and they said it was known bug, so my question is ‘why didn’t they fix it’ lol… Contacted Tony and Vectric and he is quick with response and they have a ton of vids on how the software works and some fantastic features, we had very low problems with it so far, hardly anything unlike Toolpath that is just a load a rubbish.

Thanks for the input guys, have gone for the Vectric and currently playing!
Will report back once I get my head round it all.
Thanks again
