CAD
  (1)Two types of interfaces
Both the standard and the panel interface are available
(2)Text Editing
Text can be rotated, scaled, moved, sheared, arranged along curves, etc. and can be edited again in text edit mode after these transformations. Besides, text input in a frame is also available, with automatic line feed.
(3)Serial number text
This function is used for making some designs of serial number texts.

(4)Accurate drawing
Accurate drawing is made easy by means of keyboard input. Feature points such as end points, midpoints, intersection points, perpendicular feet, and tangent points can be snapped.
(5)Editing Tools
Various Editing Tools are provided, including trim, delete, offset, divide, close, simple slice, complex slice, Boolean operation and duplication. Geometrical-shape-transforming tools include move, rotate, scale, mirror,shear, perspective distortion, envelop distortion, twist distortion, push and pull distortion and auto nesting.
（6）Auto Nesting      
1) Parameters setting such as kerf width, clearance and Iteration count;
2) Nesting method setting: starting point (Left bottom, Right bottom, Left up, Right up), direction: X direction and Y direction;
3) Precise calculation, such as in hole nest, to improve the efficiency of working and utilization rate of material.

(7)Node editing
Functions in node editing include: add, delete, disconnect, connect, close, convert to line, convert to curve, smooth, symmetry, align, start point, auto remove points, fillet, and vertical.
(8)Image Processing
Images in various formats can be imported, converted, and stripped. Image tracing is available with Ucancam in order to extract contour. Angle degrees can be adjusted, and accurate tracing parameters such as cusp angle, trace error, fairy number, and threshold of line can be set.
(9)Layer Management
In Ucancam, you can create graphs on different layers that can exist together. You can add or delete layers so as to perform operations on many objects at the same time, while none of the operations interfere with each other. You can hide or show, and modify each layer. You can also set color and rename the layers.
(10)Various Viewing Functions
There are numerous viewing tools which are used to view objects in the drawing window from different viewing angles. Viewing tools include zoom in, zoom out, dynamic zoom, pan view, fit to all, fit to page, and 3D view.
(11)Printer Setting
You can change the size of the object if its size exceeds that of the work area of your machine.
CAM
Toolpaths are calculated quickly and accurately. Ucancam V9 provides a Tools Library where users can choose, edit, add or delete a tool. Various machining solutions are available. Users can apply toolpath simulation and engraving simulation to check whether tool paths are valid and to preview machining results. These simulation functions are also useful to reduce trial cutting times and cut down machining costs and help users to get valid and effective machining results.
(1)Profile Machining
Profile Machining is widely used for incising. It includes On Line, Outside, and Inside machining according to the toolpaths of vectors.
On line: the machining is processed directly on the vectors.
Outside: cut along the outer-field of vectors.
Inside: cut along the inner-field of vectors.
(2)Area Clearance
Area Clearance is to mill an area in the material. There are two types of milling: raster and offset. It is commonly used in our work.Offset (a machinery strategy of Area clearance) has changed the line-transition into arc-transition and the arc buffer has been added as a transition for sharp corners to
adjust to high-speed milling.

(3)3D Engraving
3D engraving is to make the surface of the material smooth and to ensure the definition, precision and third dimension effect of the machined object. It is mainly used in seal engraving and engraving of characters with special effects.
3D engraving includes top and bottom engraving, and the difference between them is the size of the machining area.
(4)V-carving
V-carving uses a constant angled cutter that's moved flowing variable depth to creat a 3D carved effect on the job, similar to the way a craftsman could work by hand.
  (5)Drilling
Drilling is widely used in engraving, especially in decoration industry. During drilling, you should set the depth and gap of the holes before machining.
(6)Insert And Inlay
This is a special function of engraving. It is an important measure to make sign marks and craftworks.
(7)Intelligent Machining        
Efficiency in milling can be greatly improved when applying Intelligent Machining. Two different tools can be chosen from the toolpath, the tool with lager diameter will be used for rough machining, and the smaller one will be used for precision machining. In the first machining, the speed is greatly improved, and after the second process, you will get what you want.
(8)Prism Machining
By prism machining, it becomes easier for you to make characters with prism effect, and sign mark. Toolpaths can be created quickly and efficiently. If you want to make a massive work, it can be machined layer by layer, and you can fit them together when finished. There are two kinds of angles for you to choose, rounded angle and cusp angle. The prism will display clearly. Prism machining is quick to learn and easy to use.
(9）Embossing Machining
Embossing machining is mainly used in making relief. There are two modes in embossing: concave relief machining and convex relief machining. With ease operation, you will get accurate relief. It is widely used in such fields as advertising sign, sign board, breast card, furniture, metallic moulds, printings, etc.
(10)Image Dot Machining
Image dot machining is to engrave the object after the image is converted into grayscale image. Dots are made on the material based on the different grayscale value. The higher the grayscale value is, the deeper and bigger the dots are, and vice versa.
(11)Image Relief Machining
Image relief machining is to engrave the object after the image is converted into grayscale image. The machining is based on brightness level. Min brightness depth and max brightness depth are the depth by which the tool goes into the material. Horizontal/vertical machining is the direction of the tool path.
(12)Toolpath Simulation
Machining process can be previewed through toolpath simulation, thus avoiding trial cutting and reducing cost. This function is helpful for choosing a proper machining type.
