![]() ![]() it has been deprecated into a podiatry software. It reads XML, STEP, IGES, and VRMLĬncSimple not much information available for this one. I'm not sure how it is related to HeeksCAM, Area and P圜AM projects.ĬollabCAD seems to be a complete CAD/CAM suit written in Java (the GUI) available for Linux and Windows. ![]() HeeksCNC which is OS but you have to pay for the binaries! Import solid models from STEP and IGES files or DXF drawings. GCncCam GNU Cam Processor: converts DXF and GERBER NC-Files (Drill-Files) to G-code (RS-274), it includes a GUI, GPLv2 It is only a CLI tool written in C# so most probably only for WindowsĬNC Code Generator converts DXF to NC code (G&M), license GPL v2, it is a Java program so most probably is cross-platformĪce Converter converts DXF to G-code, license GNU GPL, written in Borland C++ and Windows binaries are provided OpenSCAD2CNC which directly converts OpenSCAD scripts to toolpath. P圜AM: reads STL (binary/ascii), DXF, SVG, PS/EPS and generates G-code, license GPL v3, cross-platform Windows/macOS/Linux, it also has the simulationĭxf2gcode or here the grbl compatible: reads 2D drawings dxf, pdf/ps and generates G-code, license GPL v3, cross-platform, it includes visual simulationĭmap2gcode: converts depth maps to G-Code using image-to-gcode, license GPL v3, is written in Python and Windows executables are provided These are the software which takes the CAD file and then generate the tool-path in machine language. SVGnest A browser-based vector nesting tool Some software can directly read 2D formats like SVG and DXF too. These are the languages most of CNC/NC controllers can read: I'm going to just list everything I have found and then maybe you guys can share others: I have previously listed all the available CAD options here or if you are interested in indirect code-based design here. Besides for scientists and researchers, they do not provide much freedom to tinker around. Sadly the world of CAM/CNC is dominated by proprietary software which costs hobbyists and students a lot.
