Blender CAM - new blender addon it's now 2025 ...

Hello, new version is out:

blendercam.blogspot.cz/2013/08/blender-cam-050.html

What is new:

• Exact mode is now faster by around 25-30 %
• support for text objects - they kind of worked in some situations but that was a coincidence! Now text is properly supported.
• default threshold for optimisation was lowered, the new algorithm works better with that
• Waterline with layers was fixed, now waterline works much more like in other CAM programs. It is however still experimental feature!
• Drill paths now support transformations of the source curve object
The

re are not so many changes as usual, but I'm kind of running in summer-mode

captain chaos:
please watch what size of object you input. the default cube in blender measures 2m, so if you test on that, it can run out of memory, because it's huge with the default settings. exact mode however should be able to deal with that too.

Hello everybody, new version is out again:

Hi, a new release of this addon is out:
blendercam.blogspot.com/2014/09/blender-cam-080.html

a lot of small improvements

Also, I have a question:

Can somebody edit the wikipage about CAM? This page became non-editable a looong time ago, and it is not possible to update the information there.
There are 3 new versions of blender CAM since this page was updated...

Blender CAM 2025
Please give some inputs, is it worth the effort to learn?

thanks I'll have another look at it as I use blender for all my 3d print and cnc drawings and use cam bam or F-Engrave. Maybe start a new blog.

Blender is a monstrosity and a magnificent piece of software, so yes, it is always worth the time and effort to learn it, not only for CNC.
