Tooling for the woodworking industry

Advanced software options

VCarve Pro

VCarve Pro is a complete solution for advanced 2D and 2.5D CNC routing. It has a comprehensive set of 2D vector design tools and large variety of toolpath strategies including profiling, pocketing, drilling, v-carving, texturing and many more. VCarve Pro’s balance of affordable power and simplicity makes it our most popular program. VCarve Pro is used by everyone from hobby craftsmen, through professional woodworkers, sign makers and other CNC Router based businesses.

Cut2D

For people who don't require design tools and only need basic toolpath strategies like profile, pocket and drilling, we offer Cut2D. This very easy to use product will let you import design files from another software program, make basic edits to them and apply simple 2D toolpaths. It has the same intuitive interface and 3D toolpath preview as VCarve Pro but does not have the advanced toolpath options or specialist toolpath strategies.

Cut3D

Cut3D lets you quickly and easily create toolpaths to carve free-form 3D parts modelled in another 3D design program. It utilizes a simple wizard-based interface but includes important options to help hold the part while it’s being carved and to allow you to cut it in slices or machine from multiple sides. Cut3D is a great solution for cutting 3D on your CNC if you are using 3D clipart or have a 3D design package to create the 3D geometry you want to machine. Cut3D does not include any design or modelling functionality.
