Designed to work with any and all CAD/ CAM systems and all machine tool controllers, editNC does more than your basic CNC editor job. It’s capabilities goes beyond the viewing and editing of G-code files to include wireframe backplotting and DNC (direct numerical) control of maching tool controllers for 2-way file transfer and trickle feeding. What’s more, using its G-Macro editor, editNC can generate NC programs, similar to CAM systems, for user defined geometries such as surface cleanings, round and rectangular pockets, bolt circles, and helical threads.
Fast and powerful, EditNC lets you:
- View and edit NC programs and calculate their CNC run times
- Backplot NC toolpaths as 3D rotatable wireframe images
- Perform DNC – By sending, receiving, trickle feeding G-code files via serial connections
- Compare two G-code files by viewing both simulataneously and highlighting differences in color
- Reformat/alter numeric G-code formats quickly and easily
- Use text coloring to identify G-code block commands more easily
- Search large files for specific commands & text strings
- Translate NC programs setup locations for machining multiple parts
- Include, exclude, or resequence line numbers for readability
- Convert (translate) data from absolute to incremental format and back again
- Utilize geometry calculators and NC programming aids
- Generate NC programs for geometries such as pockets, bolt circles, and user-defined paramter driven toolpaths
