RhinoProto: The integration of Rhino CAD and DeskProto CAM makes the process easier.
An exceptional value for your money can be obtained by combining the Rhino 3D CAD software and the DeskProto 3D CAM software. Rhino (Rhinoceros) is a wellknown 3D CAD program offering NURBS modeling for Windows. The program matches well with DeskProto, as both programs share the same ideas about ease- of-use and low cost.
Note that DeskProto can very well be combined with any 3D CAD program, as all these programs offer STL export. Rhino is the only program offering this easy integration though.
For many DeskProto users Rhino will be interesting as companion software with their current CAD system. For many Rhino users DeskProto will be interesting as it makes prototyping easy and affordable. Many CAM packages are available: DeskProto differs as it has been created for designers instead of for moldmakers. Only those parameters are available that are absolutely needed for prototyping, so the number of choices is limited and the software is easy to learn.
