CAMotics is an Open-Source software which can quickly simulate 3-axis NC machining. It aims to be a fast, flexible and user friendly simulation and CAM software for the DIY and Open-Source community. It focuses on the needs of desktop and low-end CNCs and engravers which have recently become ... [More] available for as little as $1000 USD. At home manufacturing is one of the next big technology revolutions. Much like the PC was 30 years ago. There have been major advances in desktop 3D printing (e.g. Maker Bot) but desktop CNCs have stagnated despite the availability of cheap CNC machines. A major reason for this is a lack of free software. Until now. [Less]
