CabinetVision Conversion

Post by Rob Davis »

I have a production sharing customer who wants to send me CabinetVision files. I remember reading there is a new converter for eCabients to accept an alternate program but I don't remember if it is CabinetVision or not. I searched all the forums for this topic but came up empty. I am in the router forum as it would be actual router owners I want to know from since I am going to machine it. Sorry if this answer is blatantly obvious but sometimes I need the 2x4 treatment!

Hi Rob. Control Nesting accepts mdb files from CabinetVision. The only requirement is that the CabinetVision user has the module to create this file. I suggest you have them contact Planit if they are not sure whether or not they have this ability.

The mdb from CabinetVision works the same as a twd from eCabinetSystems in Control Nesting. Simply load the file in the same manner.
