Hi
I am the precast industry.
and with precast you are not only dealing with concrete to make things happen especially when it comes to precast double wall panels or sandwich panels . For instance if i have a 10' wide by 16' High sandwich panel i also need 160 Sq of Styrofoam which will be 5 sheets of 4' by 8' sheets but will need to be cut in half so they fit and also if i have a window in there (that also needs to be cut out)

So I need to export and send this info to a CNC router to do this


And My question is can REVIT do that?????

You have such functionality to use the Precast Tools which allows for Export to CAM files directly from Revit, there also is an Autodesk Tutorial on this exact process;

 

#Precast detailing and fabrication using Revit - Perform a CAM export | Autodesk

 

Help has a section on this too;

Help | Export CAM Files from Precast Assemblies | Autodesk

 

There are also 3D Exporter Addins which can do the same - an example below
