    I have never used POVRAY files as an input to CAM, but it should be
    possible. POVRAY has a very wide support on the web. Someone
    somewhere have done it. Check on povray website. They have a lot of
    links. 

    I do not want to create a wrong impression about povray. It is a
    great software to understand CAD principals, but it is not a
    commercial software. It can be adopted, but requires work. I simply
    mentioned it as a comparison to CAD packages which requires you to
    take course after course to become proficient. That is junk. If CAD
    package requires steep learning curve, my advise go with POVRAY. At
    least you learn some real graphics. If you can find CAD which you can
    be an expert after 1 week max, then go with the commercial
    implementation.
