Hi all,

We've put DesignCAD and ContourCAM on Facebook as a sort of showcase, and I hope you'll have a look and give a Like, make a comment or maybe even load up examples of your own work.

Thank you very much!
 
magic, does ContourCAM work with any CAD tools other than your own? Will it accept STEP, IGES or other industry 3D CAD files as input? There's no documentation apparent for ContourCAM and the DesignCAD reference manual doesn't answer that question.

ContourCAM only works with DesignCAD 3D MAX v. 14 - 22, and DesignCAD 3D MAX will import and export .dwg, .dxf, iges, and a number of others, but not STEP files.

However, there's a $20 product called AccuTrans 3D, which handles all STEP to AutoCAD conversions and reverse brilliantly, so we usually recommend that. Their website is MicroMouse - Home

If you download and install the DesignCAD 3D MAX v. 22 and the ContourCAM v. 16 15 day trial versions from our website www.magiccadcam.com, you'll find User manuals for both systems.
