About

DeskProto is a 3D CAM program for 3-axis, 4-axis and 5-axis CNC milling machines. It can import 2D vector files (DXF, SVG, EPS, AI), 3D geometry files (STL, DXF) and bitmap files (any digital image), calculate CNC toolpaths for that design, simulate the result, and finally export a toolpath file for the machine that you selected - a long list of supported machines is present. DeskProto is available in our different editions: Free, Entry, Expert and Multi-Axis. The last three need a paid license, hobbyist users can buy a low-cost hobby license .

About

PhCNC LSSE is Windows PCB CAM software for CNC PCB milling and prototyping. It imports Gerber RS-274X, Excellon Drill, ODB++ and DXF manufacturing data and provides tools for editing, arranging, cloning and panelizing PCB projects. It generates toolpaths for isolation milling, copper rubout, drilling, routed holes, PCB contour cutting, masking drilling and stencil milling, with support for multiple machining tools. Generated G-code can be inspected and simulated in the integrated CNC workspace before export. PhCNC LSSE supports multiple PCB designs in a single project, breakout tabs and configurable machining operations. The Evaluation Mode has no time limit and allows complete project preparation, toolpath generation and CNC simulation. A commercial license enables saving, copying and exporting G-code and other production-use output files. PhCNC LSSE does not directly control CNC machines.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • all the features are there, some what easy to learn, much shorter learning curve than others, Wizards make it easy to set up a project. Low cost and no subscription needed.
  • Simple to use - the wizards really take the guesswork out of things for beginners. Scaleable - you can be as much in control of the process as you wish for, so it grows well with you as you grow in confidence

Cons

  • UI is a bit dated. Really no cons once you get used to the layout
  • I am unhappy that they have only just released the V-Carve solution. I have not yet upgraded to the Version 8 that incorporates this, as I have got used to making do with FEngrave. This would have been a nice to have before trying to go the hard route. I understand that tool paths can be broken, it would be nice (but potentially impossible to predict) to know this before embarking on a visualisation that just sits doing nothing for hours. Note I am still on V7, so this may be addressed in V8
