G-code (CNC program) generator for milling a round contour
G-code (CNC program) generator for
milling a circle.
Program generates a G-code tool path for milling (cutting) of the circle.
When using the metric
system of measurements, all data entered must be in metric units (mm, mm/min),
when using the imperial system of measurements (inches), all data entered must
be in inches (in, in/min).
The program makes
calculations in absolute units.
The center of coordinates is in a point:
1
2
3
4
5
Tool movement:
tool on circle
tool outside circle
tool
inside circle
Cutting direction:
clockwise
counter clockwise
Diameter of a circle D:
Tool diameter:
Total depth of cutting:
Depth
of cutting per pass:
Feed Rate (X,Y G00):
Feed Rate (X,Y G02/G03):
Feed Rate (Z G00):
Feed Rate (Z G01):

You can copy
G-code to the clipboard and save as file (*.txt , *.nc , *.cnc ,
*.tap , *.iso, etc).
Off-line version of this program you can find here .
