NC ASSIST - CNC Program Editor

NC Assist is a template-driven CNC program editor that was developed to aid engineers in producing CNC programs.  

This software was designed to offer users a dynamic, all-inclusive and user friendly programming platform that is customized to fit our Star machines.  The NC Assist interface allows users to generate programs rapidly and easily with minimum user input.  Simply clicking on the applicable template, the CNC code is automatically generated.  Users will enter the necessary data and the NC Assist will compile that information into code that is easy to understand and in a format that suits the selected Star machine.

There is a free 30-day trial available to download here:
