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
PhotoVCarve instantly converts photographs and images into high-quality toolpaths that can be run on virtually all CNC routing and engraving machines. PhotoVCarve is also perfect for machining 3D lithophanes directly from photographs, which make perfect gifts, keepsakes, and mementos that will last for generations. PhotoVCarve creates lines of grooves that vary in width and depth to represent the detail in a photograph or image. The quality of the finished result is very dependent upon a high level of contrast between the material surface and the machined grooves. PhotoVCarve machines dark areas in a photograph with wide grooves and the lighter areas with narrower ones. It automatically calculates the toolpaths based on the cutter selected. Lithophanes are 3D photographs that, when viewed in normal lighting, look a little dull and lifeless, but when back-lit, transform into stunning 3D pictures with depth and detail.
