    No you cannot use P-CAD to run a machine. The machine is run by a program that generates step and direction signals like mach3 or turbocnc. P-CAD will allow you to design a circuit and possibly convert the traces to dxf which then can be loaded into a program to generate Gcode or directly into Mach3 for gcode conversion.

    Diptrace is a circuit design program that allows conversion to dxf.
