RhinoCAM
The CAM Plug-in for Rhino.
Overview
RhinoCAM is a Computer Aided Machining (CAM) plug-in for CNC that runs completely inside of Rhinoceros. It combines the freeform modeling power of Rhino with the legendary machining capabilities of MecSoft's CAM software, providing a powerful and affordable integrated CAD/CAM solution.
✨ Key Features
- Fully integrated in Rhinoceros 3D
- 2.5, 3, 4, and 5-axis milling modules
- Turning module (RhinoLATHE)
- Nesting and Art modules
- Toolpath simulation
- Customizable post-processors
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Complete integration within the Rhino UI
- Modular configuration allows users to buy only what they need
- Combines Rhino's powerful modeling with robust CAM features
Unique Value: Provides a seamless and integrated workflow for Rhino users to go from complex 3D design to CNC manufacturing without ever leaving their preferred modeling environment.
🎯 Use Cases (5)
✅ Best For
- Machining complex surfaces designed in Rhino
- Custom jewelry and artistic product manufacturing
- Architectural model making
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Users who do not use Rhinoceros 3D
- High-volume production environments requiring advanced automation
🏆 Alternatives
Offers a much tighter integration with Rhino than standalone CAM packages that require file translation, preserving data integrity and streamlining the design-to-manufacture process.
