progeCAM Lathe

PartMaster's simple interface can quickly define entire machine jobs using a variety of powerful lathe machine routines, canned cycles and custom CNC lathe post-processors for cutting CAD data imported from progeCAD Professional. Turn, Bore, Groove, Trepan, Button, Partoff, Advanced Roughing Threading and Drills. PartMaster Turning "knows” the tool geometry, not just the tool nose radius and won’t allow overcutting. PartMaster Lathe Software includes RS232 DNC communications.
