CAD/CAM software for end-to-end CNC processes – from design to machine
With the CAD/CAM solution from GNT Systems, you can control your CNC production efficiently from the CAD model to the NC code. Our CAM systems support milling, turning and multitasking – including powerful postprocessors for Mazak, DMG MORI, Hermle and many more.
GNT Systems offers four CAM focal points for your production: Mastercam for powerful 2D/3D/5-axis machining, MazaCAM for native Mazatrol programming on Mazak controllers, a CAM tool suite with practical editors such as CIMCO Edit, NumericNotes or VANC – and CAM Assist for AI-supported automation of CAM programming directly in Mastercam.
All solutions can be integrated seamlessly – in DNC, MES and tool management. You receive a practical solution – fully integrated in DNC, tool management and MES. This creates an end-to-end digital process chain from design to the machine – for greater efficiency, safety and transparency in your CNC production.
Mastercam – CAM programming for every machining task
Mastercam is a widely used 3D CAD/CAM software that is used in mechanical engineering, mold and tool making, the automotive and aerospace industries, contract manufacturing, and medical technology.
Mastercam stands out thanks to:
- Powerful CAM functionality: Highly sophisticated toolpath strategies for milling (2D, 3D, and 5-axis machining), turning, mill-turn machining, and wire EDM.
- Modular design: Individual modules and gradations in the range of functions allow you to tailor the functionality to your needs.
- High standard scope of delivery: Dynamic strategies for milling and turning, powerful modeling functions, and extensive data interfaces are included in the standard scope of delivery.
- User-friendliness: Intuitive interface, quick to learn, large community.
- High flexibility: Supports many machine types, materials, and manufacturing processes.
- Reliable simulation & verification: Collision checking, material removal simulation, and precise preview of the machining process.
- Wide selection of postprocessors: Many compatible machines, customized postprocessors.
- Strong performance in practice: Stable, fast, and good.
Mastercam supports fast, precise, and flexible manufacturing—from prototypes to series production. Seamless integration with DNC, MES, and tool management makes Mastercam the ideal CAM solution for demanding manufacturing environments.

What our customers say about GNT Systems
Thanks to the GNT.NET MES, we can immediately order the parts we need with a handheld scanner in production, where we assemble the parts, and schedule them for production without any further communication.
On the one hand, this saves us a great deal of time and, on the other hand, we can prevent any communication errors. Thanks to the CMS, we now have a huge database of every activity (repairs, quotations, spare parts, etc.) carried out by our company.
This means that several people can easily carry out several activities without us being dependent on individual people. The GNT.NET MES therefore makes our day-to-day business much easier.

Traceability of planning and actual production times leads to transparency of unplanned downtimes, production controlling, capacity optimization and control of our continuous improvements.
The system functionalities and the resulting advantages were decisive for our decision in two areas in particular: firstly, the clear, graphical display of machine statuses and secondly, the well-structured NC program data management. […] Today, there is more transparency and a better overview in micro-gear production – the best prerequisites for a further boost in productivity.

MazaCAM – Program Mazatrol, digitally and efficiently
Create, convert and transfer Mazatrol programs directly on the PC – without any machine operation.
- Native Mazatrol programming for turning & milling centers
- Conversion between controller generations
- Drawing import & feature-based editing (e.g. DXF)
- Connection to DNC systems for secure data transfer
CAM Assist for Mastercam – AI-supported programming directly in the CAM system
CAM Assist adds artificial intelligence to your Mastercam environment: the tool automatically creates up to 80% of the machining strategies, tool paths and cutting parameters – directly in the familiar workflow. This reduces programming times, relieves your team and speeds up your production in the long term.
CAM tools & editors – from CIMCO to VANC
- As a proven NC editor, CIMCO Edit offers practical functions for editing and simulating ISO/DIN/Mazatrol code. With CNC-Calc, simple 2D geometries can be converted directly into NC code - ideal for quick changes or additions.
- NumericNotes brings structure to your NC programs: Color-coded plain text, semantic structuring and clear presentation help you keep an overview at all times. Particularly suitable for small teams and frequently recurring operations.
- VANC enables CAM programming without a 3D model - feature-based, control-neutral and particularly efficient for standard parts and simple geometries. Perfect when speed and repeatability are important.
- Your benefits: The tools specifically supplement existing CAM processes - for greater transparency, comprehensible code and shorter reaction times in everyday workshop operations.

Frequently asked questions
on the subject of CAD/CAM
What is a CAD/CAM solution?
CAD/CAM software combines the design of components (CAD) with the creation of NC programs for production (CAM). It enables the direct transfer of geometries to the manufacturing processes – including simulation, tool selection and post-processor output.
Which machining processes does the GNT CAD/CAM solution support?
Our systems support all common processes: Milling, turning, drilling, multitasking machining, 5-axis simultaneous machining and more – depending on the CAM system used, such as Mastercam or MazaCAM.
Can the CAM system be integrated into other GNT solutions?
Yes, the CAD/CAM solution is fully integrated into DNC, tool management and MES – for consistent NC processes without media disruptions.
How does the output to the CNC machine take place?
The generated NC programs are transferred directly to the machine via the GNT DNC software – audit-proof, traceable and tailored to your control system using a powerful post-processor.
What are the advantages of integration into the overall process?
You avoid double data entry, save set-up time, always use up-to-date tool data and ensure smooth processes between design, production and planning.
