progeCAM CNC Software for progeCAD 2009 2009

progeCAM CNC is a reliable, low cost software program for business, a progeCAD 2009 add-on that takes ideas from concept sketch to design, detailed drafting and final part CNC manufacturing. progeCAM seamlessly integrates two robust technologies, Dolphin PartMaster CNC and progeSOFT IntelliCAD. An integration module callable from within progeCADs design interface allows users to select geometry and then choose whether that geometry requires preprocessing within CAM space before finally post processing the G-Code from PartMaster CAM required for actually cutting your design.

Using CADDIT progeCAM, a user can simply select the desired CAD geometry for manufacturing, selects from a number of built-in pre-processing options, to generate the desired CNC toolpath in PartMaster. progeCAM makes this possible without any manual CAD file conversion by the user.
progeCAM comes in two major versions with several additional options. progeCAM Basic is an affordable entry-level 2D mini milling package suitable for hobby CNC, table routers, woodworking and more. Serious manufacturers should try progeCAM Professional. progeCAM Professional offers four options: Mill, Lathe, Wire EDM or all three together. It offers maximum flexibility with 3D back plotting, toolpath macros, DNC functionality, custom post processors and other enhancements for machinists. All versions are stand alone solutions that do not require additional software. progeCAM Professional will only be available in Australia, New Zealand and surrounding region.
Many businesses require a low cost design solution that is fast, flexible and easy to use. progeCAM is ideal for wood working shops, metal and laser cutting for both domestic and industrial products. Some of these include furniture, OEM aftermarket automotive products, building maintenance and supply, electrical fittings, custom jig, test and fixture development and other custom manufacturing requirements.
