I just found out that ArtCAM by DelCAM was acquired by Autodesk, makers of AutoCAM, and Fusion360.

I thought ArtCAM was a great 2-nd best artistic CAM in the lower end.

I'm not so sure Autodesk will do it justice. Big companies like that are just too bloated to be effective at a decent price.

I do hope that Vectric can weather that storm.

Rhino and RhinoCAM are on my radar screen, mostly because it handles FULL 3D so well. BUT, it's middle ground on price, which is above my pay grade. The package I would want is upwards of $5-8K

Sooo - Vectric seems to have the market - at least for now.

Still, DeskProto has Vectric beat on FULL 3D in the lower price range.

Oh well - so - for ArtCAM users, I feel your pain, sorry to see that soldier laid down.
