Open Source Linux CNC Software

DXF2GCODE is a tool for converting 2D (dxf, pdf, ps) drawings to CNC machine compatible GCode. Windows, Linux, and Mac support by using python scripting language.

The EdytorNC project now consists of four applications that can be useful for programming and operating CNC machine tools. EditorNC is a specialised text editor for CNC programmers. FTPserver is a simple FTP server for transferring cnc programs to and from the machine. SerialPortFileServer is a simple server for transferring cnc programmes to and from the machine via RS232 ports. ProgramManager is a program that makes it easy to search for cnc programs based on, for example, part number, part name contained in the first three comments in the cnc program. Some EdytorNC features : bolt holes calculation; solutions of triangles calculation; speed, feed calculation; conversion inch/mm, mm/inch; code colouring; RS232 data transmission with automatic file saving and possibility to download new CNC program directly from machine (beta function, look in tool tips in serial port configuration dialog). Clipboard to keep texts from system clipboard.

PCIToGCode is a software developed to convert an image of a printed circuit board (PCB) in to a G code file. Using the G code file, you can mill a PCB using a CNC milling machine. This software was developed to help and to speed up the manufacturing process of a PCB prototype. Using this software, you will be able to build your so expected project, extracted both from a magazine or from the Internet, which needs a PCB to be produced, without any complicated CAD software. Try out this software, and you will be glad about the results.

LinuxCNC controls CNC machines. It can drive milling machines, lathes, 3d printers, laser cutters, plasma cutters, robot arms, hexapods, and more.

This software is used to create and modify machine programs for EMCO Compact 5 and Control T.U. CNC-2A lathes and to send / received them between PC and machine over serial connection and ethernet using a converter (like lantronix XPort).

A tool for CNC toolpath generation. Model data in, G-Codes out. The system is kept as generic as possible. Machines with up to 9 axis can be defined. Machine simulator included.

A GUI to control CNC machines, like laser cutting machines and others.

A small program for quickly generation of g-code. It can generate circular pockets, square pockets, etc. Now it can generate program from DXF. You can support a development with donation on my paypal page www.paypal.me/alexdevisa Небольшая программа для генерации G-кода. Может генерировать различные карманы, а так же поддерживает генерацию G-кода из файла DXF. Поддержать проект можно пожертвованием любой суммы на моей странице paypal - www.paypal.me/alexdevisa
