Rhinocam and Turning/Tabs

[Moondog]

Hello.

Currently use Rhino3D V4 and wouldn't use anything else.

Looking at using RhinoCam but wondering if Rhinocam supports the following:

1. Turning/lathe module?

2. Bridges/Tabs in the toolpathing?

Look forward to your replies.

cheers

I checked the site...

On the Rhinocam detail/features it doesn't say Turn or Tabs. There is VisualTurn but I am not looking for an additional product...

I even think VisualMill does Tabs/Bridges.

Anybody else know.

Cheers

RhinoCAM does not currently do turning, only milling. I have no idea if or when they will integrate that into the plug-in.

As far as Tabs go, they are not in the current implementation of RhinoCAM 1.0, they will be in Visual Mill 6 (now in Beta), which will become RhinoCAM 2.0. As to when the release version of either will appear, again, no idea... RhinoCAM will be after VM, so I don't expect it anytime soon.
