What is PhotoVCarve?

PhotoVCarve swiftly converts images and photographs into accurate toolpaths that are suitable for almost all CNC routing and engraving machines. This software stands out for its ability to create exquisite 3D lithophanes from images, which can be treasured as gifts, keepsakes, or lasting memories. By generating grooves of different widths and depths, it effectively captures the fine details of the original photograph. The final quality of the lithophane hinges on a pronounced contrast between the material's surface and the machined features. In the darker areas of an image, PhotoVCarve produces broader grooves, while the lighter areas are represented with slimmer ones. The software intelligently calculates toolpaths based on the chosen cutter, ensuring optimal outcomes for each project. Lithophanes have a flat appearance under normal lighting, but when backlit, they unveil stunning 3D visuals that are rich in detail and depth, making them truly mesmerizing. This fusion of technology and artistic expression positions PhotoVCarve as an essential resource for artists and creators eager to transform their photographs into remarkable pieces of art. Consequently, it empowers users to explore new creative avenues and elevate their craft to the next level.

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.
