    MasterCam for a CNC Press Break & Shear?

    Does anyone know if MasterCam is a good software package for a CNC Press Break and CNC Shear? I am doing research on what would be a good solution for these machines.

    Any information would be great, thanks!

    Are you looking for CAM package? Do you need CAM for Break & Shear?
    Or is it a one or two axis positioning system you need?

    MasterCam is not what your want. Check out LITIO - 3D Sheet metal software it should work for you.
