What is FreeMILL?

FreeMILL is a no-cost milling module that functions within our commercial CNC software, tailored specifically for programming CNC mills and routers. This completely free CAM software places no limits on duration, attempts, file saving, or lines of code! Users are empowered to generate toolpaths that guide the cutting tool along a series of parallel planes to achieve their desired shapes. Moreover, it facilitates the creation of both Roughing and Finishing toolpaths and offers comprehensive simulation capabilities for cutting and material processes. One of its notable features is the ability to output G-code compatible with your chosen CNC milling machine. Established in 1997, MecSoft Corporation stands at the forefront of developing both standalone and integrated CAD/CAM software solutions that serve the needs of the subtractive (CNC machining) and additive (3D printing) manufacturing industries. With its headquarters located in Irvine, CA, MecSoft is dedicated to delivering user-friendly, robust, and economical CAD/CAM software that addresses the various demands of its clientele. Their unwavering commitment to innovation guarantees that customers have access to excellent support and continually updated technology, ensuring a seamless experience. This dedication sets them apart in the competitive landscape of CAD/CAM software development.

What is CadVex?

CadVex is CNC quoting and manufacturing estimating software that helps machine shops convert STEP files and engineering drawings into detailed, editable cost estimates. The software analyzes 3D part geometry to detect manufacturable features, production operations, and assumptions that affect the expected cost of producing a component. Its cost analysis breaks estimates into factors such as starting material and stock, material quantity, scrap assumptions, setup, programming, machining operations, finishing, marking, inspection, and outside processes. Detected holes, pockets, grooves, faces, and other manufacturing features can be associated with machining time and cost within the estimate. Users can adjust their own shop rates, batch sizes, cycle assumptions, quantity-sensitive production economics, margins, and other commercial inputs rather than relying on a fixed automated price. CadVex includes DFM functionality that attaches manufacturability warnings to the relevant geometry and provides manufacturing impact information and suggested changes for review. After reviewing the manufacturing estimate and DFM findings, estimators can create customer-ready quotes using their own company letterhead. Quote intelligence tracks each quote through draft, sent, won, and lost stages while providing statistics for open pipeline, won value, win-rate trends, and customer performance. CadVex Desktop runs on Windows and Apple Silicon Macs, performs analysis locally so CAD files remain on the user's machine, supports unlimited analysis, and can operate offline after activation with occasional internet access for licensing and updates. CadVex Cloud uses the same interface and produces the same estimates but performs analysis in CadVex Cloud, requires no local installation, and uses a usage-based model.
