Watch this video for some quick tips on how to get going in Mastercam X.

There are so many features that you have used for so many years, for instance Hot Keys, Interface, and toolpaths(just to mention a few) and you don’t want these features to change. Yes, the interface is different, but the toolpaths that V9 users are used to are still there–as are the Hot keys and a lot more! Mastercam X was designed to make your job easier with less key strokes and faster processing for toolpaths. We want to make it easier for you to give it a try.

Remember, Save up-to 70% by updating your V9 before 12/31/10. For more information on updating, please go here.

With all the new operating systems (OS) out there it can be confusing which versions of Mastercam will run on what OS.

Please see the Mastercam blog post here: http://mastercamx.blogspot.com/2010/06/operating-system-compatibility.html

Mastercam Version 9 may be getting your job done, but is it keeping you ahead of your competition and increasing your bottom line?  Remember when you bought Mastercam originally to gain a competitive advantage over all the other machine shops?  You can do that again by updating the software you already own.
