Guest IronKevin Posted September 16, 2003 Share Posted September 16, 2003 Check out http://www.merrymech.com/ It's a stand-alone sheet metal CAM package. IronKevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Thomas Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 We use the Plate-n-sheet development software for all our duct work, very cheap and simple to use, www.plate-n-sheet.com, I think that it sits under the Merrymech software ? One very handy feature is the ability to export 3d dxf surfaces from it, of duct work, so suddenly you have a parametric capability to generate ducts that we often start from and then build upon them in CAD.

Guest dlalonde Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Oh Tom, you may be stepping into the lost realm of dinosaur-ware. I've yet to find a sheetmetal cam pkg (punch or laser) that was created after the era of the 286 pc. They work, but you'll have to hire (or become) a cave-man. Be prepared for underdocumented software with lots of keypress commands. They're all selling old rope. Check out Jetcam.net and metalsoft.com too. Dave BTW - sheetmetal cam for Ironcad is the killer app. in manufacturing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
