In the ArtCam world, there will soon be a new baby in the family, that would be ArtCam Express.
Although their own parent website says coming soon, we are waiting for this to have great new things, from a phone conversation I had with the companies Sales Manager, the ArtCam Express will have all the function of MillWizard and Insignia E. Here is what they have to say so far....
ArtCAM Express is designed specifically for the smaller business. Quick and easy to learn, and powered by ArtCAM's award-winning design & manufacturing engine....
As we find out more, we will tell you all the details. Stay tuned.
I have spoken with ArtCam reps, and they are excited about the new CNC Machine software package ArtCam Express. When I asked them about the release date for ArtCam Express, I was told that they are hoping it is soon. The ArtCam reps commented they are most concerned about making sure the quality is there in their new ArtCam Express product.
I am looking for many of the new features that are currently promised in the ArtCam Express product. Many of the ArtCam Express features are a combining of the ArtCam Mill Wizard, and ArtCam Insignia E, so many of the features of ArtCam Express will be the best of both worlds.
So ArtCam Express will have an beginners 2D routing package which will provide accurate 2 D design and toolpath, which will help learn the ArtCam Insignia. ArtCam Express will have the advanced drawing tools for editing and freeform shapes.
ArtCam Express should also have trimming tools, and fixing importing artwork. ArtCam Express will also have advaned text editing which gives you very powerful text tools giving spacing, kerning, line and paragraph formatting.
Under the ArtCam Express CNC Machining part there are commands like Area Clearing. ArtCam Express also has profiling which has the lead in. 3D engraving and V-carving with 10 fonts should also be in the ArtCam Express package. ArtCam Express still performs drilling and machining along vector graphics. I am hoping that ArtCam Express will have the database of editable tools which has pre-defined tools.
I am sure that ArtCam Express will have their normal support for drivers of most CNC machine driver boards, and interfaces.
Some of the ArtCam MillWizard features, should be the full 3D modelling.
This package was developed for use by childern between the ages of 11 and 16, so I know you can learn this package. Although ArtCam MillWizard was developed for childern, that does not mean that it is a childern package.
If you have any question, I am in contact with the Sales Reps for this pacakge on a regular bases so please fell free to e-mail me, I will post your comments, and or questions and contact them and hope I will have an answer. You may e-mail me at gbrown@CNC1StopShop.com

ArtCam MillWizard AKA Mill Wizard (Click the banner to go to the website)
You can create real 3D objects from your favourite 3D modelling program using the new ArtCAM MillWizard software package from Delcam, and almost any 3D CNC milling machine even your desktop one. You will find that suitable machines range from small CNC desktop hobbyist machines costing less than $2000 up to 8' by 4' industrial routers which can cost 100's of thousands. ArtCam Mill Wizard was designed for users of 3D modelling packages rather than machinists, ArtCAM MillWizard uses a simple step by step approach which allows anyone to begin creating real 3D parts from their 3D computer models in minutes, and soon we will have some of our own examples.
The software ArtCam MillWizard was created based on a program developed for use by school children between the ages of 11 and 16, ArtCAM MillWizard is the worlds easiest to use 3D machining program. As you know just because it is easy to use, doesn't mean that the results are low quality. Using machining technology originally developed for ArtCAM Pro - Delcam's flagship 3D relief engraving and modelling program - the results from ArtCAM MillWizard will amaze you. And fulfill your 3D modeling needs
ArtCAM MillWizard's with simple step by step approach, from the initial importing of 3D models, to producing a real 3D product, is a revolution in 3D CNC machining usability is so easy anyone can do it. No machining knowledge is required other than how to load tools into your CNC machine and transfer a file to it to the computer which controls the CNC machine.
We are confident that ArtCAM MillWizard is the easiest 3D machining package available. However, to convince you of the fact, ArtCam would like you to download their free evaluation version which will allow you to test ArtCAM MillWizard for yourself on your own CNC machine. The evaluation version comes complete with sample models which you can generate toolpaths for and cut on your machine, using your choice of tools, strategies, size, material etc. The evaluation version will also allow you to load your own 3D models into ArtCAM MillWizard and generate toolpaths and simulate the results. However, the evaluation version will not allow you to cut these toolpaths. But will allow you to see the results.
ArtCAM MillWizard 1.3 is now available with bug fixes and enhancements over version 1.2. The evaluation version has been updated and if you are an existing user of ArtCAM MillWizard you can upgrade your copy for free by downloading the patch from thier Downloads Page. From there you can also find out what's new in version 1.3
ArtCAM MillWizard has been created by Delcam - one of the world's leading developers and suppliers of CAD/CAM software for the 3 dimensional design, manufacture and inspection of complex shapes. Their products are used by more than 3000 organisations in over 40 countries world-wide, in a huge range of applications, from conceptual design to pattern making and tool making. For more information on Delcam's range of industrial strength CAD/CAM software, visit our main page at www.delcam.com We collected this information directly from their website, and find their software to be as promised. Please be careful, if you download the demo, you are going to want the full version software. Just remind your wife, this is what you want for X-Mas!
