SheetCam <www.sheetcam.com> can do this at a much lower price. I
can
write a post processor for you that will slow down to a preset
percentage of the normal feed rate on arcs. The post could even be
configured to slow down more for tighter arcs.

Hi Peter,
I do have deskcnc and it's good enough for this, but water
jets
needs a good cam that can look way ahead and predicts what is
going
to happen and than starts to adjust the feed rate before it
gets to
a corner or radius to compensate for Jet lag doing that manualy
would be a pain if not impossible.
Got a quote from PEPs and it runs at 10K US$ (ouch !!)
I've being thinking about getting a working G code, than work
this
out on excel to adjust the feed rate.
Hi Les,
For what I've read about softwares for water jets,is that the tool
path should change speed progressive from a straith line into a
corner or radius.not just change speed when it runs into a corner or
radius.
If you can do that Than we can work on feed rates percentage to
adjust for jet lag.
