MasterCam is one that will do it, it's not cheap. The trick is to have the post processor that will allow your control (Fanuc, OSP, Haas, Fadal,etc) to convert the info from CAD/CAM to the proper code for your control.

472,
Try this site:

This software was recomended as a cheaper but functional option.
Good for a smaller operation. Sorry, I haven't used it yet but I trust the guy that told me about it.
I am just finishing up a course in MasterCam, lots of whistles and bells...lots of $$$'s.
about $13K I think.
