CODESYS CNC 3D Editor - Article no.000026

This example describes the usage of the online CNC editor.

The online CNC editor allows for the graphical visualization of a CNC path (G-Code) and for editing the text.

With the graphical visualization of the path it is possible to look at the path from any point of view or position. The view can be rotated around all its three axes and the viewpoint can be moved within the field. Additionally it is possible to zoom continuously.

The G-Code can be displayed and changed via a text editor. The text editor is connected to the graphical visualization: the element, where the cursor appears will be emphasized in the the visualization. Each change of the G-Code will be adopted in the visualization.

In an execution mode the visualization can display the current progress of the path processing: the graphical element which the tool is processing at the moment is marked, as well as the already done elements.
