BetterWeCarver

Broader Compatibility, More Convenience

  • One software for all

    CAM design + machine control, all in one software

    WeCarver integrates device connection, content creation, file management and machine control, enabling end-to-end closed-loop control from design to engraving.

  • Multi-device compatibility

    Supports 3 types of engraving machines

    Different engraving machines (CNC, laser, impact engraver) usually require separate control tools, which brings high switching cost for users with multiple machines.

  • Multi-terminal & multi-system compatibility

    PC + Mobile, compatible with Windows / iOS / Linux

    WeCarver delivers a wider user experience. It supports both PC and mobile terminals, and is compatible with Windows, iOS and Linux operating systems.

WeCarver

Intelligent CAM

Built-in multiple parameter templates, ready for immediate use

Machining Strategy Types

Machining Strategy Types

Predefined strategy library, reuse suitable templates to reduce repeated setup

Predefined strategies (2.5D nameplate, relief curved surface, thin sheet machining, etc.), 3D relief roughing / semi-finishing, Output toolpaths in 3-axis by default (4th A-axis optional)
Parameter Library System

Parameter Library System

Intelligent recommendations + flexible free combination

Four libraries: Material Library (22 materials graded into 3 suitability tiers for ED1, with recommended dimensions & cutting parameters), Tool Library (21 official presets + 5 tool position bindings), Machine Library, Strategy Library
Automatic Parameter Clamping

Automatic Parameter Clamping

Reduce the adverse impact caused when parameters exceed the upper limit.

Automatically clamps and alerts when parameters exceed limits according to machine travel and rigidity ceiling, Clamps feed rate by machine limits while generating toolpaths
Machine Compatibility

Machine Compatibility

Supports custom machine configuration

Pre-configured ED1 adaptation parameters for instant use upon machine connection, Custom machines supported (travel range, spindle limit, feed limit editable)

Simulation &Preview

Preview Upon Generation

Preview Upon Generation

Seamless model creation and toolpath preview

Automatically switch to toolpath preview mode once toolpath generation finishes; all operations within one single interface.
Step-Based Coloring

Step-Based Coloring

Color-coded steps for easy identification

Toolpaths are color-coded by machining step (e.g., orange for roughing, blue for finishing; one unique color per step).

Offline Usability

WeCarver

3D parsing & toolpath computation run on a local service; no online authentication required.

Peers

Requires online authentication; offline use not supported.

Competitor's CAM becomes unusable when disconnected; WeCarver computes locally.

Cross - platform Coverage

WeCarver

Supports Windows, macOS and Linux — all three platforms.

Peers

CAM side only on Windows / macOS; no Linux version (only the control side has Linux).

No platform gap — Linux users are fully supported.
