I downloaded CAPSmill v6.01 a few days ago, the site said it was completely
free.
In looking it over, it lists only the following machines supported:
Turning Center +Fanuc OMC, +Sinumerik 810M, + Fanuc 21 M, + Heidenham 355.
Allen Bradley is not listed.
The output can be saved as a .cpm file, however you can also create a DXF
file. It will read IGES and DXF files.
It does show that you can create new machines but there is not enough
information that I can find to tell how you can do it.
Still confused here, but looks like a very powerful program, if someone can
figure out how to use it. It is listed as free, and is about 7-8 meg
download.
