Yes, good choice of category, too! Has anyone tried running it under Mono on Linux? Is it open source or proprietary? Maybe I just read too quickly. Thanks for the nice welcome. But it would be great if someone could try it.
I like to work with CNC machines, like programming and make the program available for free. In return I hope to get suggestions and ideas to improve GrblGru further. I downloaded 3. Mono is the C implementation that Microsoft now maintains for Linux; after purchasing the company that made it in the first place. I was able to install the program on Ubuntu using wine but no luck actually running the program.
Will have to see if I can tweak wine to run it. It looks like FreeCAD. Thank you for your interest. No, GrblGru is self-made and is not based on any other program. The extremely small dimensions e. The new version V3.
For this purpose, a menu appears at the start of the program in which you can select the basic purpose. In addition to the full version, a simple 3D simulation and a G-code sender are available.
So if you want to try GrblGru, I especially recommend the 3D simulation mode, which allows with little effort to simulate existing G-codes files.
I also added new 3D models again. Among other things, a laser. Next time I will report separately about it. Download from my dropbox:. Are you not interested in making this into a larger open source project? What programming language did you use to develop this? What 3rd party packages did you use? I am a programmer myself, and I am interested in CNC lathes…which is a niche group inside a niche group it seems so there are very few resources I can find on designing the CAM, simulation, and G-Code support sending.
Where does one start? This time I have dealt with the Grbl Laser mode. Because I do not yet have any practical experience myself, a friend helped me to work out the necessary program adaptations for the operation of a laser.
As always, I tried to briefly describe the essentials in the attached video. Since my friend use his laser to make cosplay costumes, the main focus is on the steps involved in cutting materials. A short request at the end. Even a small weak laser can cause irreparable damage to the eyes. Be sure to get laser safety glasses and be aware of the necessary safety regulations.
Although I know that there are still a few construction sites open in my 2D program, I was tempted to take my first steps in the direction of 5 axes. For this purpose, I have added a rotary and a swivel axis to the 3D model of my machine on a trial basis.
Of course, the functionality is still very limited. Corresponding CAM functionality will also be a long time in coming. But, you can already move all 5 axes of the model manually and simple G-code is already processed by the interpreter. The whole thing is suitable for thinking about 5-axis technology and its complexity. For all those who are interested in this topic, I have put a small guide for importing own 3D-models on my dropbox. As a suitable controller I have chosen an Arduino Due approx.
My controller and motors are not yet connected, but the data exchange with g2core looks very promising. Please note the NEW address for download: bit.
A new version V3. The coordinate system has been adapted to the standardized XZ system. Creating jobs now works in the same way as when milling. Now also templates for turning chamfers and radii have been added. Suggestions for other useful templates are welcome.
When milling, internal geometry data can now also be exported as SVG and G-Code can be imported as data. Since the costs for a regulated drive of the main motor and the necessary control would exceed my hobby budget, I tried to mount a stepper motor parallel to the main motor.
