"Many designers, artists and hobbyists are attached to using their Apple computer in their creative process," says Lex Lennings, DeskProto spokesman, "however so far almost no CAM software has been available for Mac. We are very happy that we can fill this gap by offering DeskProto for macOS."
DeskProto offers three types of CAM:
Vector machining: 2D jobs like nameplates and front-panels (import DXF, AI, EPS file)
Geometry machining: 3D jobs like sculptures and scale models (import STL file)
Bitmap machining: reliefs based on digital images (import any image format).
Four editions are available: Free, Entry, Expert and Multi-Axis. The Free edition offers basic CAM functions for all three types of CAM and can be used free of charge (no time limitation), the paid editions offer more functionality. The top edition (Multi-Axis) even supports 4-axis machining and some 5-axis work. DeskProto is available as free download on www.deskproto.com. A quick start is possible, as DeskProto is friendly for users without much prior CAM experience.
