VisualTurn

[Step by Step]

Sorry if I make mistakes, this is my first post.

I am looking at VisualTurn CAM for my basic lathe turning cnc machine.
Does anyone have any experience with this software???
What other software should I look at as well.
I just want easy programming for simple 2D profiles, no holes, bores etc.

Also it would be great if it could import Solidworks .sldprt files.

Thanks
John

OneCNC will fit the bill since you asked.

Mecsoft has a SW importer for VisualMill, I don't know about VT (ask them).
They will also do online demos of the software (again, call and talk to them).

DolphinCadCam has a very nice turning package. It is fast and very easy to use. I also use their milling program which works great for 2.5D.

I use Dolphin as well. Unless you don't have a budget, I highly recommend it.
