The journey from a 3D idea to a G-code file usually follows a three-step workflow:
G-code files are the fundamental instruction set used to control Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines and 3D printers. Acting as the bridge between a digital design and a physical object, these plain-text files contain precise coordinates and commands that tell a machine exactly where to move, how fast to go, and what actions to perform. What is a G-Code File?
These control non-movement functions, such as heating the printer bed (M190) or turning off a cooling fan (M107). How G-Code Files are Generated
