CADasCAM Sorotec Edition

Many of the established CAD programs have grown over decades; these heavyweights are often perceived as overloaded and difficult to learn. Cumbersome and expensive subscription licenses and occasionally difficult-to-understand functional restrictions for light versions are also rejected by hobby designers. CADasCam clears that up.

The completely newly developed environment for 2.5D drawings and machine code generation (in addition to milling, printers and drag knives are also taken into account, for example) is expressly aimed at both beginners and "full professionals". The clearly structured interface is easy to understand, and a series of tutorial videos and proper instructions in PDF format help you get started. There is also a user forum on the manufacturer's website, and the developers value good contact with users.

A large number of special and extensively configurable basic forms simplifies and speeds up the work. In addition to a gear wheel module, there is even one for airfoil profiles - a trump card for flight model builders.

The program, which is constantly being further developed, can be downloaded from the manufacturer's website. After purchase, you will be sent the license code to unlock the full version from demo mode.
