Doug, it's CAD technology that is light years ahead not CAM. The company offering this technology might not make it but others with similar technology will. They have no built in CAM. I believe Mastercam X3 can open it's files directly. I haven't tested this yet.

 

They have some very good video that makes it clear how good it is. You want links?

"Please post a list of your top two or three video requests, and I'll see if I can whip some up and post them on the FTP."

 

Lead-in, Lead-out is the first subject I'd like to see a comprehensive video done on. I'd like to see many examples and many different ways to use Lead-in, Lead-out. The reason I want this is based on a statement Ron Branch made earlier in this thread which stated:

 

"Did you ever get around to messing with that lead in and out function? I would say probably one of Mastercam's biggest and best feature for simple work that many people over look and do not realize is inside of the pocket toolpaths. I use it all the time to ramp to the floor of pockets where I do not want my tool to rub the bottom floor expect for finishing. I also use this ramp to ramp into and out of cuts especially when going into a closed shapes. Very Very powerful, and if you have only messed around with it I would recommend you spend about 2 week really learning it for it does so very good things."

 

Note that what is being taught here is a good part machining technique and not specific to Mastercam. I feel the best video for me ends up using Mastercam to teach machining techniques.
