Let this program draw the tool path of any G-Code
program on the screen. This program will help you write NC code programs or to
learn how to write NC programs or event to debug such programs. Our
software supports the standard G Code commands and also sub program
calls and macro programming with IF statements and WHILE loops etc. The
program draws a graphical representation of the programmed G-Code tool path
in an isometric 3D view.
You can configure the program to interpret the G-Code as
Mill
or Lathe (Format A or B codes).
Your G-Code program will be shown with syntax
highlighting in the editor. With the code editor you can open, edit
and save G-Code programs up to a size of 2 GB very fast. The reason is,
that we have build in our "Text Editor Lighting fast" technologie into this
program. The editor supports an unlimited number of undo and redo steps. All
inputs can be converted into capital letters automatically. You can also convert all
characters of existing files into capital letters.
Import DXF files and convert DXF files into
G-code Or export the tool path of your NC program as DXF
file.
You can use this program to find errors in the G-Code. If
you click on a line in the 3D view, the line of G-Code will be selected in
the editor. And if you go to a line in the editor the end point of the tool
movement with be selected in the 3D view. You can run the program line by line,
you can press the pause button and you can let the program run slower. You can
let run the program up to or from the selected line in the editor you use can
only run one line or a number of selected lines. You can see the current values
of all variables if you activate the special tool window with Calculate/Show variables. If you are in the pause modus
you can calculate any expression (like [SIN(#100)*#101] for example) for the variable values of the actual
line of code with the function Calculate/Render expression.
With the DNC function you can transfer your programs to
your CNC machine. The program let you format the source code in the following
ways: Remove comments, space characters, space lines and block numbers. You can
insert spaces or renumber the blocks. If you renumber
the block numbers our software will
update the GOTO blocks for you automatically.
The program can now also show ESSI code.
Disclaimer: We
have developed this software with the greatest possible care, but we can not
guarenntee, that the program is completly free of any bugs. Different CNC machines
may interpret the same G-Code in a different
way. The drawing of the tool path in our
software therefore is no guarentee, that your CNC machine will interpret
the G-Code in the same way as our software. We are not responsible
for damages on your CNC machine.
