Hello for all experienced Alphacam users,
I currently ordered a flat bed nesting CNC with Osai controller, and looking for a CAM to drive it.
I know there lots of CAM can drive the CNC, but I have only narrowed down to Alpahcam and Asapan as they are the two I can find to link each other, and most importantly they are the only two I can find in local country.
So, I would like to know has someone linked a third party kitchen cabinet cad cam to Alphacam?
I was told that the linking can be done by dxf files. However I personally would like to avoid the dxf files, because this type of file doesn't include toolings info, lead in lead out, feed rate etc.
I was a CNC programmer, and used to handle Biess bpp and some dxf file all the time, so I understand the fundamental of the difference between dxf and other files that contain machining information.
Here, it will be very grateful if someone can give me advice for linking a third party CAD to Alphacam, either by dxf method or others.
Thanks a lot for your time.
