Cutline Studio is design and CAM software for small woodworking shops and makers who cut plywood and sheet goods on a CNC router. Describe a project in plain words, such as a cabinet, shelf unit or display fixture, and Cutline designs every part, sizes the slots, tabs, finger joints and dados to the plywood thickness you measured, adds dogbones for your bit and checks that the parts fit together in 3D. It then nests the parts on your sheet to cut material waste and writes G-code for Grbl and Mac
MobiCAM is desktop CAD/CAM software for furniture workshops. You draw cabinets, kitchens, wardrobes and bathroom units by their dimensions, and the cut list, sheet nesting, CNC G-code, edge-banding list, barcoded part labels and a customer quote with VAT all come out of the same model — change one size and every output follows. It imports DXF and glTF, exports DXF, glTF, OBJ and STEP, and draws, nests and writes G-code without an internet connection (it goes online only now and then, for licence
CABS is cabinet design software built by a cabinet maker for cabinet makers. Design fitted wardrobes, kitchens and media units in 3D, show clients a presentation, then get the cutting list and DXF files for CNC. It runs in the browser and on iPad, with nothing to install. Made in the UK for one-man joiners and small workshops: 7-day free trial, then £29 a month (Pro £39 with 30 AI renders a month).
CutNest is a cut list optimiser and sheet nesting tool for workshops that cut parts from stock material: sheet metal fabricators, laser, plasma and CNC router shops, joiners and cabinet makers, sign makers and woodworkers. Enter the sheet sizes or bar lengths you buy, your kerf and the parts you need. CutNest nests the parts, tells you how many sheets or lengths to order and what they cost, draws every sheet to scale, and says when it has proved that no layout could use fewer. From the layout
Browser 1-CSP and 2-CSP cutting optimizer for aluminium and uPVC window shops. Plan profile bars and glass/panels with kerf, miters, and remnants; export PDF, XLS, CSV, or DXF for single-head and double-head saws.
Zenith Quoting is an AI-powered automation tool that reads 2D engineering drawings to generate itemized machining quotes and material cost estimates for job shops and CNC manufacturers.
Dashnode is an AI-powered CNC costing software built to replace slow, manual, expert-dependent costing processes. Instead of relying on toolpaths or complex CAM setups, Dashnode reads STEP and STP files directly and generates accurate machining logic for milling, turning, and turn-mill parts — all within seconds. The platform provides instant costing, bulk configuration, and automatic DFM insights, while allowing complete customization of machine hour rates, material costs, setup assumptions,
OPJAW is a deterministic geometry engine for CNC workholding fixture generation. Upload a STEP file and get production-ready fixture plates, soft jaws, zero-point clamping plates, or multi-op vise jaws. Dimensions are derived from bounding-box geometry, not manual input. Every output is a verified STEP solid with geometric oracle verification. $200 per design, pay after preview. No accounts, no geometry stored.
Nest&Cut is a cloud-based nesting software designed to optimize material usage for sheet cutting industries such as metalworking, woodworking, textiles, and composite manufacturing. Developed by Alma, Nest&Cut provides an intuitive, web-based nesting solution that allows users to automatically generate efficient cutting layouts, reducing material waste and improving productivity.
Shop-floor NC-code simulation software. NC-code simulation, fine-tuning, and re-engineering for CNC machines and industrial robots.
