Are There Any Limitations When Comparing ArtCAM to Carveco?2020-08-07T12:32:28+01:00

The functionality included in Carveco software is near-identical to that within Autodesk® ArtCAM® Premium software. However, there are some exceptions:

  • 3D Printing and Batch Assembly tools are excluded; but you can still export Carveco models as STL files for use in 3rd-party 3D printing software.
  • Support for importing 3D surface models is reduced, but still includes *.dgk; *.ddx; *.ddz; *.igs; *.ige; *.iges; *.3dm; *.stp; and *.step file formats. For a full list of Carveco supported file types please click here.
  • A new model cannot be created by opening a PDF file, but PDF files can still be imported.

While we intend to investigate opportunities to include similar functionality in Carveco software, there is no guarantee that this will lead to it being implemented in future.

Are you a part of Autodesk?2020-08-07T12:37:35+01:00

Carveco is not part of Autodesk; it is an entirely independent company.

I already have ArtCAM. Why do I need Carveco?2020-08-07T12:32:35+01:00

Autodesk’s support for ArtCAM® software officially ended on November 1st, 2018. In short, this means that there will be no further development, updates, bug fixes or direct support beyond peer-to-peer interactions across online forums.

Where the functionality and performance of ArtCAM software has been an integral part of your business, we are confident that you would want to ensure continuity and stability to protect the long-term health of your business. Carveco exists to offer that continuity in the short-term, and the development of new features and software enhancements in the long-term.
