Denford Software & Machines

Hi I was looking at buying a simple lathe cam and tried the Quickturn software but can't find a price anywhere on the denford site????

I have a converted Easiturn lathe that I use for college.

Does anyone know how much it is etc?

thanks

I think it is £295 for a site licence. Will check later to confirm.

Thanks, I was just reading on another post that the Denford Quickturn doesn't do threading unless on recent denford machines. This makes £295 quite expensive for a single user who is still at college. Also with it not producing any g-code at all you cannot really determine whether it's going to be any use or not. I would have thought that a few lines of code would be produced so the user/evaluator could determine whether it is fit for use.

Pity really as it looks perfect for turning, simple and easy to use. It would certainly fits the gap in the market that exists r.e. a decent, simple, easy to use path creator. Most package are way over the top for turning.

what has the easiturn been converted to. What os does it have.

It has been converted to spindle 4 and a uniport breakout board using existing steppers. Mach3 on XP. I have some new cnc4you nema34 steppers that I want to fit but the spindles are 12.7mm diameter, the existing steppers are approx 9.5mm diameter. Wondering what to do about that one.

there are quite a few wizards in mach3 that will give you most machining operations.

I've tried those and as much as they are OK for simple stuff I was after a path application. The quickturn is perfect, it's a pity someone doesn't make something similar for lathes.
