BobCAD-CAM 3-D Milling & Routing Software - (Version 21)
Retails for $1,295, but included for FREE with Torchmate Physical Z-axis for Routing and Drilling
 
The Version 21 CAD-CAM system rivals the functionality of expensive CAD/CAM systems, and is specially priced for the small shop owner.

BobCAD-CAM Version 21 is perfect for job shops and manufacturers that do a little of everything. It is very easy to operate which makes it an excellent choice for the shop floor. It doesn’t take long to cut parts from the first time you open the software up. There are no long learning curves, which means that training is faster. Part making with BobCAD-CAM Version 21 is about as easy as it gets!


  
BobCAD/CAM Version 21 software is best known for its power and ease of use, turning small shops into highly competitive shops over night and allowing large shops to increase production time, time and time again. Functionality ranges from basic hole- drilling, ridged tapping cycles and simple profiling to the fast generation of complex multi-axis tool path with a variety of surface creating functions that the system offers. Most importantly, the added benefit of customizable post processors for writing NC/G-code programs automatically and full RS 232 communications features including DNC, allows the manufacturer the ability to reduce lead times and get the parts cut faster and more efficiently.  A comprehensive training package is included at no extra cost!
