Cadkey Plug-in

[LYN BYRD]

Anyone Know Of A Cam Program That Runs Inside Cadkey99 That Is Affordable?

[bostosh]

Yes there is a way,
I've been making sophisticated Aerospace parts
via cadkey geometry using another external CAM system.
Yes it works and yes I make money
(programmer since 1968)

I have some demo discs with Cadkeys' atempts at adding a CAM system
Can copy and send.

I Have Been Using Bobcad For The Cam And Using Cadkey99 For Drawing Because It Is Much More Productive. But I Guess It Boils Down To What You Are Used To. What Was The Name Of Cadkey's Attempt At A Cam Package? I Think That I Tried It Once.

Lyn,

I think it was the first attempt at the NC pgm that they sell now as an upgrade to the latest version of Kubotek (the company that bought Cadkey). They offer it now as a 2-1/2 axis milling package with the CAD software for $4k, not sure what the 3 axis upgrade is worth, but it's worth checking out. www.kubotekusa.com

Featurecam was the cam for Cadkey19.
I received a demo and was learning it once.

Wow....I learned something. I did not know that FC was used with CK 19. I have used CadKey since 1993 and FeatureCam since 2003.
