Re: Conversational CAM
I think that it is great way, if you have many CNC code in one cnc machine and need make conversion to other machine. Ale for some simple machining, something like "shop programming" . Im writing similar softwares for a customers for a different drive controls. But if you need some good 3d toolpath or some more then offer these softwares you have to use Cam software.
My simple program for conversion between Acramatic to Fanuc controller.
