Mach3 CNC Control Software
What is Mach3 CNC control software?
Mach3 CNC control software is a platform that turns most windows PCs into a CNC machine controller that manages the motions of motors and generators.
Through an importing process called LazyCam, Mach3 CNC control software processes a CNC programming language called geometric code (G-code) that tells the CNC machine what type of action to perform.
The third version of the software, the Mach3 is reviewed as the most user-friendly and reliable— from DIY projects to industrial machining.
The field of mechatronics aims to produce a design solution to make more intelligent and streamlined system processes for difficult or time-consuming tasks.
What are some features of the Mach3 CNC control software?
- Allows Drawing eXchange Format (DXF) files to import directly into PC
- Bitmap image (BMP) and JPEG, a format for compressing image files, can quickly transfer into code
- Can control spindle speed for more accurate cuts
- Full video display and touch screen capabilities
- Fully customizable user interface
- Option to extend the abilities of Mach3 through “wizards” or mini-programs, allowing users to perform functions without a pre-written G-code file
- Remotely turn equipment on and off by controlling multiple relays at a time
- Users can write miscellaneous instructions with M-codes and Macros through Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition, or VBScript, and
- With a 6-axis input-output operation— there is no need for a high-priced controller panel
