The goal of the project is the realization of a modular firmware that allows to control a CNC machine with different utensils. For instance, a CNC with a drill, with few changes can become a plotter with a pen or cutting machine to cut cardboard or stickers. In order to do that, we want project a CNC router with a mechanism that allows a fast utensil change and a controlling firmware which can use different utensils changing some configuration parameters.

RFXCAM is an opensource CAD / CAM package targeted at CNC machines (Mills, routers...). The idea is to create the basic interface for geometry manipulation and toolpath creation. Heavy python plugin support will allow a future community to create a vast selection of unique plugins for added functionality specific to their needs.
