Open Source BSD CNC Software

Open Source CAM - Toolpath Generation for 3-Axis CNC machining

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.

This Python 3.1 tool manipulates the coordinate system of CNC GCODE for machining or engraving. It can Flip X, Y, or Z coordinates, mirror X, Y, or Z coordinates, flip or Mirror both XY coordinates, or insert Z motions into a GCODE file devoid of them.

CNC Editor - The goal of this project will be to design text oriented editor for CNC machines with simulation toolpath.

XinCNC is a free software for Computer Numerical Control (CNC).

APTOS is an open source Apt translator project. It consists of several CAM applications, based on the Apt programming language. It is used to create control programs for cnc mills, lathes, water jets, lasers, and other industrial equipment.

Command line tool to generate Gcode for CNC applications from DXF files. Originally written for 2-axis machines such as foam cutters, it now supports 3-axis machines.

FTP BNC. File Transfer Protocol Bouncer. Allows Any one to setup a Bouncer to a ftp server. Uses, mask the real identity of a ftp server, provide link over lans running NAT or etc. Proxy and FXP modes. Commands, or commands and data in proxy, data in FXP

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).

4.4BSD-based UNIX-like operating system for CNC / machine control applications. Using low-cost hardware, FabBSD can be used to control a wide array of CNC milling machines, lathes, routers, process-control and automation equipment.

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.

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

A set of tools/calculators that help CNC machinists quickly handle math associated with machine technology. Will incorporate more calculators when they are ready the final product will probably be a single combined application. Currently available is a Mill Rate calculator that is recursive, meaning it changes the corresponding values as you manipulate the data. In the works is a Can Cycle calculator that functions the same way.

Universal CNC (Computer Numerical Control) system with accompanying communication and graphics libraries

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.

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

A robotic DIY styrofoam cutter consisting of one rotational and two translational axes. It cuts a variety of shapes out of styrofoam-like materials using a hot wire. This project documents the necessary hardware and software parts. Don't miss the follow-up project at http://raumschaum.org Its goal is to further develop hardware and software into an user friendly application.

This is a utility to process and convert drl files to efficient g code, which will help in drilling PCBs using a CNC. The snapshots are based on the linuxcnc axis program to visualize the results of the program using different algorithms.

A program to generate the Computer Numeric Code used by the huskystar C20 Sewing Machine

Project aim is to translate RS274X files such that it is easy to use the RS274X file content to automaticly program a home made CNC milling machine to mill Printed circuit boards.

tkBacktracer is a cross-platform interactive visualization tool to explore the tool motions in RS-274D "G-code" CNC files used in computer controlled milling and manufacturing.
