what is g-code?

The code is the common name of the programming language for CNC machine tools.
A little common, grab-
All types of terms in the CNC programming language.
Few machines meet this standard today.
Like manufacturers, there are many changes.
That\'s what I did to G-Code.
It is a simple language built on the Descartes coordinate system of motion control.
This is a bite.
I don\'t know if this is completely correct, but when we go through some code line by line, you get what I mean in a second.
You will soon remember your high school geometry.
For real professionals, you know G-
Code, but this is a great place to start thinking about it.
You will see a lot of G changes.
Name of the code: gcodeg-Codeg-codeG CodeG-
Is there any other code for the code? x94In a wordx85Yes.
We will talk about this in a moment. G-
The code is also the name of any command in the CNC program that starts with the letter G. G-
The code usually tells the machine to perform an action. G-
The code can tell the machine in X-
Axis, for example.
Alternatively, move quickly to another location.
Alternatively, move in an arc manner during milling.
One by one
Here are some G-
The code remembers that these codes have a certain degree of variation between the CAM package and the CNC machine manufacturer.

We humans like flexibility.
We also like standards. G-
The code is standardized in a sense.
Once you start reading it, you can read any flavor of it.
This is the standardized part.
Not all machines are the same.
Even the same machine is different to some extent.
They may not have the same tools loaded or they are slightly modified to produce some type of part.
It\'s fun how people like to customize. That is why G-
The code is different.
In order to adapt to all situations, you need to have some flexibility in programming.
Plus every manufacturer thinks their version is the best and you will get countless G-Code outside
Many manufacturers are also trying to force you to use only their code.
For example, they give you a design interface for making parts and a CAM interface for generating code.
They lock you in their black box so you can\'t go anywhere else for service and support.
They locked you in their house.
Sometimes they make up a completely different G-
No one can understand the code language except them.
They did this to tie your hands up. What is an M-Code? M-
Code related to G-Codes. M-
The code controls different machine functions.
Some of these features are to turn the machine on and off.
Turn the spindle on or off.
Turn the plasma flashlight on or off.
Turn coolant on or off.
You see.
You may need to perform these functions when programming a CNC machine. Like G-Code, M-
The code varies from manufacturer to machine.
As you can imagine, you need an M-
Code to open and close the plasma torch on the CNC Plasma Cutting machine.
You don\'t need M-
However, the code to open and close the spindle.
Hey, the machine doesn\'t even have a spindle.
Plasma cutting machine!
