History
ArtClip3D was created in collaboration with Vectorclip3D.com and Type3 Software in the year 2010. Since the association ArtClip3D Software has been headquartered in Santa Fe Springs, CA in the late 2010.

CAD/CAM Modules
ArtClip3D is made of 3 fundamental modules which operate together, building 2D or 3D results on a CNC machine. The 2D Edit module allows for instance the creation of vectors based of various geometrical shapes (rectangle, circle, ovals, arrow, star...) while the node edition brings to Users the capability to accurately edit the position in the 3 axis XYZ of each individual point of a vector in absolute reference guaranteeing accuracy up to 16 digits after the decimal point if needed by the user.

ArtClip3D Software comes standard with 3 main modules for:


 * 2D Editing Mill
 * 3D Manipulations (Bas Relief)
 * CAM and Machine Simulations (CAM)

ArtClip3D also offers a web access to over 1500 individual 3D models, and V-Carving models "ready-to-carve".
