    Bobcad/Cabinetvision & Techno router.

    I just purchased a Techno LC4896 CNC. I'm using Bobcad v.16.1 to generate my toolpaths (I use the machine to cut parts for 32mm cabinetry). My cabinets are designed in CabinetVison's Solid Manufacturing, Cabinetvision does offer a CNC add-on to my existing software buts the cost is approx 14-18K. I'm wondering if there is a less expensive alternative with which I can send my cutlists from Cabinetvision to the CNC? Thanks in advance.

    Hi Ryco,

    What kind of file exports can you do from Cabinet vision? If it can do a dxf export of 2d geometry, than lots of cadcam systems can work with it
    First you get good, then you get fast. Then grouchiness sets in.

    (Note: The opinions expressed in this post are my own and are not necessarily those of CNCzone and its management)

    Cabinet vision and Alphacam

    Alphacam and cabinet vision go hand in hand. u can export indivitual parts to AC out of CV. and then edit and send to your cnc
