BobCad-Cam: Manufacturing Software

BobCad-Cam BobCAD trademark, bobcad version 14.0 for DOS, BOBCAD Versions 17.0 to 20.3 for Windows 9x/ME/XP.
BOBCAD version 17 interfaces with IGES and DXF for links to Autocad, Corel Draw, Pro Engineer
BOBCAD-CAM is configurable to out put to most CNC machines including Mill, Lathe, Router, Plasma, Waterjet, Laser.

For CNC/NC Milling and Lathe. Machine Master, Timemaster, Fagor, Thermwood, Prototrak, Mazak, Daewoo, Laguna, Fadal, Haas, Mitsubishi,Fanuc, Anilam, Bridgeport Motionmaster, Standard Router, Centroid, AHHA etc.

Features list:

  • Point: sketch, coordinate, incremental, end of entity, on an entity, arc center, intersection, perpendicular.
  • Line: sketch, coordinate, join, parallel, tangent, angle, continuous.
  • Arc: sketch center, coordinate center, point center, fillet with auto trim, 3-entity, ellipse.
  • Other curves: rectangle, offset, bolt hole pattern, pocketing linear and spiral, clean circle, hatch, simulate, gear, helix.
  • 3-D: move to Z, interpolation of 3-D arc to lines, surface ruled, surface cross section, surface Winskintm, surface of revolution, surface follow curve, surface radial. 3-D viewing, iso view, front view, side view, rotate view 3-D.
  • Manipulation 2-D and 3-D: translate, drag, rotate, copy, mirror, scale, trim, extend, break, divide, interpolate.
  • Fonts: text drawing, true type fonts, machinable fonts, resize, bold, underline, italics, engraving.
  • Colors, line styles, line thickness, print the drawing (plus color printing), plot, render.
  • Lathe: diameter input, X-Z input, tool-tip radius compensation.
  • Dimensions: horizontal, vertical, radius, angle, shortest distance.
  • Control: layers, blank, unblank, delete, undo, redo, inquiry verification, zoom in-out, shift view.
  • NC-CAM: drawing converts to G-code or other code, built-in editor, renumber, absolute and incremental programming, cut arcs in quadrants, 2-D and 3-D cutter compensation, lathe output, drill cycles, save as ASCII file.
  • RS232-communications: set baud rate, word length, parity, stop bits, hand-shaking, flow control, RTS/CTS, XON/XOFF, send to CNC machine, receive from CNC machine.
  • Interface: DXF in and out to read in drawings from other systems, IGES to read in drawings from large systems, cut and paste.

  • Gear Draw Gears

  • Bolt Hole Create bolt hole patterns.

  • Surfaces Create surfaces.

    New features:

    • NC Verification (see picture below).
    • Read in an NC file and convert back to a drawing
    • Lathe roughing with multiple cavities.
    • Built-in Calculator. Enter equation in number fields.
    • 3-D spline with font conversion from lines to arcs.
    • Skin function now supports unequal number of entiites in sections.
    • Approach and Depart function.
    • Chain offset instant convert to G-code.
    • 4th axis rotary conversion.

  • Z Roughing

  • Ruled Surface

  • Revolved Surface
