    In recent times you more often hear about VoluMill. Does anybody have experiences with it? Is it worth investing? Do I have to pay regard to s.th. special? For example, do the post processors have beenadapted? What about training?

    Hello nasdaq,

    I cannot inform you about the software, but normally PPs always have to be adapted.
    Regular codes for G-and M-Codes do exist, which are the same BUT also machine specific codes - and they must be concerning with CAM.

    For trainings, by the way, I found out, that it's the best when I learn the ropes myself.
    The advantage is that if you really need a further training, you are able to ask special questions.
    Or maybe you do't have any further training requirements... and than you can save more than 1000 Euros like me :-)

    BUT this depends on your previous knowledge. I am working with CAM since my apprenticeship, so I think it is more simple for me to learn the software by myself.

    Greetings, Christian
