Load and display G-code assets by printing layers from first to last or selected layers. Use tubes to draw extruded materials and lines to draw paths.
Introduction
G-code is a remarkably simple way to simulate and visualize a 3D printer's toolpath before running the program. In a survey conducted by Filament, respondents cited that over 80% of waste from 3D printing comes from failed prints. Save time and money by with a G-code program to make sure that your prints or engravings will come out as expected. According to Wikipedia, G-code (also RS-274) is the most widely used computer numerical control (CNC) programming language so what are you waiting for?
This plugin is totally free!
ABOUT THE G-CODE PLUGIN
Jazzros developed the G-code plug-in for Zea Engine that adds the possibility to load and display G-code assets by printing layers from first to last or selected. It uses tubes to draw extruded materials and lines to draw paths.
