About

Vectric VCarve is a powerful yet user-friendly software for creating 2.5D decorative carvings and machining parts on CNC routers. It supports toolpaths such as v-carving, chamfering, fluting, prism, and moulding, and allows the import of 3D models for machining. The Desktop edition suits smaller CNC machines up to 24”x24”, ideal for hobbyists, while the Pro edition offers unlimited job size, true shape nesting, job setup sheets, and other production tools. VCarve includes comprehensive drawing and editing tools for vectors, bitmap import and editing, and image vectorization. Users benefit from realistic 3D toolpath previews and a built-in tool database for managing cutters and machining parameters. VCarve integrates machine management tools and offers extensive online training and community support.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It does a lot if you can figure out how to use the features. Unfortunately, that is very difficult to do.
  • Almost great design and CAM software. Excellent toolpath control and toolpath options, An ability to have multiple sheets in one file, bump increments that dynamically change based on zoom. Various export formats, multiple 3d format imports. A sweet vector selector options window. Node editing with bezier curve handles. chamfer tool paths, v-carve tool paths, fluting tool paths, and all sorts of texturing effects. An easy way into import different tooling. Automated part nesting, Really cool gadgets like the box creator 2 sided machining, and the list goes on.

Cons

  • Many features don't seem to work, or are so confusing that you just can't figure them out. And for documentation, Vectric supplies YouTube videos ONLY, and many of them are obsolete.
  • Almost great because the software is hobbled by some design decisions I don't understand. Its biggest flaw is a lack of comprehensive hot keys and keyboard mapping. With no way to map the keyboard to the drawing icons or the vector selector. No history or log of events. Poor layer menu that I can't seem to nest on the screen where I like it. No ability to add sheets to a job without the nest function. The tool path menu doesn't display all of the information that i find relevant, I'm looking at you tool number. No adaptive milling (you can't have everything).
