GCode Generator

This tool accepts machining parameters such as stock dimensions, tool diameter, spindle speed, feed rate, and operation type to produce G-code for milling, drilling, and pocketing tasks. It targets engineers, machinists, educators, and hobbyists who require repeatable toolpaths without full CAM workflows. It supports common patterns such as contour milling, pocketing, and simple finishing passes.
Conceptually, inputs map to a sequence of moves: set units and origin, rapid traverse to clearance, approach, contour/roughing, finishing passes, and retracts. The generator applies basic ramping and depth-per-pass rules to maintain safe engagement with material. It outputs standard G-code text ready for controller post-processing.
The tool provides value by enabling fast proofs, repeatable setups, and shareable toolpaths that can be validated offline before machine run. Beneficiaries include design engineers, training labs, and makers who need quick, consistent results.
Core features include input validation, unit handling, simple post-processing, and export options. Use cases span rapid prototyping to educational demonstrations where users can export to common G-code dialects or paste into CAM workflows for further refinement.
