Updates on v4

Hi Joakim,

My Rhino upgrade is on the way. Any updates on MadCam? Custom tool capability?

Thanks,
Chris

Hello Chris,
It is now possible to use taper cutters in madCAM 4.
We will release madCAM 4 soon. I will let you know when it is available for download.

Hey Joakim,

I took a minute to visit the madcamcnc page and followed the link to your company's site. On the Tool Making page, is that you sitting at the pc?

All anyone has to do is look at your site and see what Madcam is capable of!

Hello Chris,

No it is not me. The guys on the Tool Making page are our toolmakers. I am working together with them and they also give me feedback when developing madCAM.

Thank you,
Joakim

I understand, don't want to scare off business by putting your picture up on the webpage! At least that's why I don't put mine up!

BTW, does the existing version of MadCAM work with Rhino v4? Or do I need to wait for MADCAM 4 in order to generate toolpaths with the new Rhino?

[JOM]

Yes you will need madCAM 4.0 to generate toolpaths with Rhino 4.0.

Hi Joakim,

I just happened to be in the shop this morning and found your email announcing MadCam4's release!

I can't wait to play with it this weekend! I'm especially looking forward to experimenting with the taper cutter option!

Thanks for your hard work!
