What do you like best about RhinoCAM?

Title doesn't require any explanation. Whatever you need most is in front of you. Also program presents you an all-in-one solution. It's fast, doesn't require a high-tech computer. MecSoft is doing great job with tutorials. They're explain almost everything in program. You won't be without answered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RhinoCAM?

Animations of program a little bit old-fashinoned. They could improve with more smooth details. That's all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering RhinoCAM:

Don't hesitate to use it. It's a great program. If you're new, you probably learn so quickly because company tells you everything about program in their tutorials on YouTube. If you stuck with a problem, just ask them. They answers quickly and also you can try this program for free. That means a good news for student like me before :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is RhinoCAM solving and how is that benefiting you?

I used this program for my 3-axis part project at university. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about RhinoCAM?

I'm using Rcam for 10+ years, machining 2D and 3D precision parts for the automation industry. Over the years, many of my suggestion was implemented, and the software has flexibilities what others don't. The Rhino CAD by itself, with its capabilities, contributes lots of the CAM plug-in. The post-processors can be customized to close to expectation. The tech support is (was) helpful, and most time, you can talk to somebody over the phone and troubleshoot problems online. If they are not available, then, at least, they respond relatively quickly by email. The cost of the software and maintenance is fair for the Pro (?) version.

Overall, the software is very logical and easy to learn compare to others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RhinoCAM?

Like any other Cam software, this one is not immune to problems. The more significant issue is the software has time to time few new features implemented, but they are half done. Unfortunately, the development team is not eager to fix problems, and often time they mix bug fix with enhancement/new feature. Over the years, Thread milling is not improved and unsafe to use unless you know few tricks. Tha Facing operation(s) are still have problem with inconsistent behavior, and you never know what step over value will do full clean up. Also, zero option where the tool starts, which can be quite the problem on some parts. In 3 axis world, some features work well but lack of options to produce desired tool paths for the best result. The only 3D roughing cycle still present-day can't leave uniform stock on Z level. Entry distance is not always there, especially when it is most required. Somehow never fails. Plunging into uncut areas are still problem and not always possible to catch or get rid of it. Lots of playing around with step-over distance to achieve full clean up level to level. You get I,J arc movements on X,Y but by some reason, the helical and under angle entry consist gazillion points...and the list goes on with mostly nuisance problems that never get fixed. Overall, if they would fix problems instead of adding new features with new issues, this software would be within the best. For CNC routers working with wood, probably none of the above possess too much trouble, but machining steel and tool steels can be a little costly when a inserted tool plunges where it not supposed to.

Regardless of the problems RCam is still an ok software. Nowadays programers make CAM softwares and many of them has no idea about machining and that goes to other CAM softwares. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering RhinoCAM:

Powerful package to get started and keep adding on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is RhinoCAM solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main benefit of the software the flexibility with Rhino CAD, which can import 3D files. With this option, you can bring in a new file into an existing one and makes the similar parts programing way faster, provided if you used curves, surfaces and points as machining entries. I found personally this way to be more productive compare to feature recognition software which never recognoze features properly. Of course, with better knowledge base handling this would be even more powerful but this is up the Mecsofts team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about RhinoCAM?

RhinoCAM saved my time as it translates data back and forth and produces two files. it helps to run utterly 3D paths like pencil tracing on models. I had a great experience running in RhinoCam and it is easy to use and perform reliably for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RhinoCAM?

I have not experienced any issues running rhino other than running it initially, Just mobile version needs more updates to perform fastly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is RhinoCAM solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is intuitive and secure. it saves a great deal of time and translates data for producing files. It is quite cost-effective and solves my all problems of Programming Control. I use this tool for Data Exchange and it install easily on all kinds of systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about RhinoCAM?

The biggest advantage is by combining Rhino and Rhino CAM we can get the most secure and safe CAD system which is now a days more required. The another advantage is it's cost is very less ie. the price of RhinoCAM is very much less as compared to many other CAM provider so it attracts the more and more number of customers towards their side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RhinoCAM?

The biggest disadvantage is that they are continuously changing their design so the customer need to vary their products accordingly so they are not stick to their basic products so they will be getting to much problem in switching from one design to another design Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering RhinoCAM:

It would be very nice to get used with the Rhino CAM so that the person will get the benefit of cost as it 's price is very less and also of reliability feature . So for if anyone starting to use the CAM then i would highly recommend them to use the Rhino CAM which is also fast in output as compared to others Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is RhinoCAM solving and how is that benefiting you?

The other feature that is good from customer point of view is it is very fast in responding so customer don't need to be wait for a long period of time to get the outputs.The another thing that is good about the RhinoCAM is it very reliable so customer should not be dependent on the another system during the use of RhinoCAM Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RhinoCAM?

As Rhino CAM provides the efficiency of automation to maximize the programming efficiency the skill of worker of guessing how much the depth should be and how much it should be cut would not develop.

The main disadvantage of Rhino CAM is their processing power and cost factor.Rhino CAM requires high amount of processing speed and power and that can be in a high quality computer so the cost of highly processing Computer is quite higher than that of the normal computers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering RhinoCAM:

I would Recommended to use Rhino CAM if one have the highly equipped computer processing capabilities then this the best CAM you should use that also makes the ease in work load as compared to other. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
