PRO100 and Design2Cam Ltd are pleased to announce the release of the re-designed and enhanced CNC Linking module – adding complex functionality usually only found in more expensive software design packages.

Built with the same “easy-to-use” ethos that makes PRO100 so simple to operate, the new CNC Linking module enables you to add, then view, the machining within the project before sending the files to your CNC. This allows for everything to be created and viewed within the PRO100 project, allowing for accuracy of drilling and machining because any element of a design can have machining attached. No more having to edit your design in a separate CAD/CAM program!

Adding even more value, PRO100’s CNC library can also be used by any PRO100 user without requiring a CNC licence. This means your project can be opened by the production department for checking before being sent through to your CNC machine.

Once approved, the project is simply exported to the integrated ActCut cad/ cam software. This is a simple process where the parts are nested and the layouts (and labels if required) are produced alongside the g-code needed by your CNC.

PRO100 software includes a basic CNC library to get you producing from day one. You can change and alter the contents of the library and add and save new cabinets to be used again. With the ability to save machining templates in the CNC module, different machining can be applied to any part, quickly and easily. The benefit? Different drilling and machining patterns are simpler to accommodate in your designs, and faster to get into production.

As well as the new functionality, PRO100 still has all the standard features that have made it such a popular choice for design and production workshops across NZ:

• Drag and drop libraries

• Stretchable cabinets

• Replace cabinets, items or objects

• 360 Panorama export (View 3d with 3d Goggles)

• Manual dimensioning - ability to add on different layers

• Hide cabinets, items or objects

• Import 3d Models directly into the software

• Apply text to the project

• 2D Shape editor - these shapes can be send used in the CNC module

• Align feature

• Distribute feature
