X carve control and gcode recommendations
|
My robotics club has a Grizzly G8689 mini mill converted to CNC (G540 and MACH3, d2nc for CAM) and recently acquired an X-Carve unit.? The X-carve has a GRBL (arduino based) controller and needs gcode different than we are used to.? We have demo'd MeshCam, but either we don't know it well (probably) or it isn't powerful enough to give us control over the gcode generation.?
Wondering if we can find a free CAM generator for this unit ... recommendations? It doesnt like D2NC gcode.? OR maybe drop a TB6600 controller system in it and use MACH??? it does have limit switches, so I'd continue to use them. Thanks so much, Chuck |
开云体育Fusion seems to be the hobbyist choice of free software nowadays and can create G-Code for a lot of different targets. ? John Dammeyer ? ? From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Chuck Merja
