About Direct Motion
Direct Motion’s VMC Series, powered by our proprietary 4C software, delivers a comprehensive design and manufacturing solution. The 4C system integrates 3D CAD, CAM, CNC, and CMM functionalities into a single, user-friendly package, eliminating the need for external software. Operators can program 3D solid models directly on the machine’s 40" 4K touch display, streamlining workflows from prototyping to production.
Eyeshot has allowed DM to integrate advanced 3d CAD directly into our product which provides a rich CAD/CAM environment to our customers directly on their CNC machine.

Challenge
The integration of Eyeshot has significantly enhanced our product by embedding advanced 3D CAD capabilities directly into the CNC environment. Previously, customers relied on external CAM systems to generate and modify GCode toolpaths—a process that was both time-consuming and inefficient. With Eyeshot, users can now import 3D models and adjust toolpaths within our software, enabling immediate execution without external dependencies.
Solution
By integrating Eyeshot into our proprietary software, operators can import 3D models and modify toolpaths directly within the CNC interface, eliminating the need for external CAM systems or regenerating GCode. Any toolpath adjustments are immediately ready for machine execution, streamlining the workflow and improving efficiency.
Results
Eyeshot’s .NET compatibility facilitated a seamless integration, and their responsive support team has been instrumental in resolving technical challenges promptly.
