Vectric Cut2D Desktop is an excellent choice for easy to use yet powerful tools for 2D design and editing PLUS efficient 2D toolpath calculation.

Cut2D can import 2D designs from other programs and also provides a full set of drawing and editing tools. The toolpath options cover all typical 2D routing operations such as Profiling, Pocketing, Auto-Inlays and Drilling. Each toolpath includes options to customize settings and provides a high level of control for different types of operation. All toolpaths can be previewed to show just how the part will look when it is actually cut, allowing toolpaths to be further optimized.

Please note that you do not need this software to run our machines. Many of our customers use Autodesk Fusion 360, which is free to enthusiasts. Cut2D performs many similar tasks, but excels in certain areas compared to Fusion.

Description

This is the desktop version of Cut2D, which is different than Cut2D Pro. Cut 2D Pro is about triple the price and includes some additional features that are more apt to a production environment (such as part nesting). The main difference is that VCarve Desktop is limited to a 24×24″ work area, which is perfect for most of our machines. (The Power Route has a slightly larger movement range than this).
