We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "CNC Programming",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release CADCAM software adds extra dimension to art from
Camtek, which we summarised at the time by saying "British sculptor Alastair Mackie used Camtek's PEPS SolidCut five-axis CADCAM software to produce his latest work entitled 'Bipolar'".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Strategic alliance guarantees CAD/CAM link from
Desktop Engineering: "CenitDesktop has formed a strategic alliance with machine tool supplier Chiron Werke UK".
In August 2006, we covered the news from Jerand Technical Services
concerning its JetPro version 1.0 for Pro/Engineer Wildfire 3.0
- take a look at Software smoothes link from CAD to CAM
which says: "JetPro allows Pro/Engineer users to easily export sheet metal part models, including geometry and manufacturing attributes, directly to the Jetcam Expert CNC programming and nesting system".
Take a look also at the news release from Pathtrace Engineering Systems, Pathtrace announces EdgeCAM 10.75 release,
as well as CAD/CAM software shows up in Chile and Brazil from Missler Software,
and Software smoothes route from SolidWorks to CAM from DP Technology.
