About Carveco

Carveco software is an all-in-one CADCAM software package for designing artistic products and manufacturing them using CNC machine tools or laser-engraving machines.

Designing

You can create 2D designs by importing images or creating images using vectors and bitmaps. You can also create 3D designs by importing reliefs or creating reliefs from vectors and bitmaps.

Manufacturing

When you have finished creating the 2D or 3D design, you can choose a machining toolpath to manufacture the design into a product. After Carveco calculates and generates the toolpath, you can simulate the toolpath, before then saving it and exporting the data to the machine.

Carveco also enables you to create triangle meshes from reliefs and export these designs for 3D printing, so you can manufacture products without needing to generate any toolpaths.
