VCarve Pro's key features

post processors in VCarve

Output for almost every CNC machine

VCarve comes with a huge range of post processors to output the code to run your machine.

If you cannot find your CNC in the list, it is normally possible to create a post processor for you. Please contact us for more details.

Watch the video below to see how fast and easy the PolyBoard to VCarve to CNC integration is.

Fast, simple and automatic integration with PolyBoard and StairDesigner

PolyBoard and StairDesigner come with highly configurable DXF post processors. Once you've finished your furniture or stair design, output the part by part DXF files to VCarve.

VCarve uses a templates system to interpret these files, complete with all tool path and machining details for immediate and 100% accurate output of your machine code.

nesting in vcarve software

Excellent basic nesting function

If you are using a nesting CNC, you must nest your parts so they can be efficiently cut and machined at the same time on your machine.

VCarve comes with an integral nesting module that works very well to minimise waste and speed up the cutting process.

Alternatively add OptiNest for a complete nesting solution

If you want full nesting with labels and stock management, it is simple to add OptiNest to your production process along with VCarve.
