Can a Vevor cnc machine works with Carbide

Yes, Carbide Create will work w/ 3rd party machines if you get a Carbide Create Pro license:
then you can write out G-code to send to the machine as described in:

Note that depending on the communication/control program you use you may need a custom post-processor:

though usually Basic G-code or Grbl works.
how can u get a Carbide Create Pro license:?
Buy one here:
As @WillAdams indicated the Pro license will allow you to save gcode. Starting back with v7 C3D encrypted the gcode inside the .c2d file that Carbide Create makes. With the pro license you can save gcode from the .c2d file because the .c2d file is not usable by any applications but Carbide Motion. Carbide Motion wont work with 3rd party machines.
So you want to enable your first tool path and disable the remaining tool paths if you have multiple tool paths. Save that file and you can extract the gcode. Then open CC and disable the first tool path and enable the 2nd tool path, save and extract the gcode. Do this until all your tool paths are saved. You cannot save them all in one gcode file because there is no mechanism for a new tool to be installed, measured and use in continious operations. You will install your bits, zero your X Y and Z, run that gcode. Then install your second tool and run the second tool path etc…
Thanks alot, one more question, Con Carbide Motion works with 3rd party machines and if yes How it wosks.
Carbide Motion is specific to Carbide 3D machines — you will need to use a communication/control program as recommended/documented by the manufacturer of your machine.
