FreeMill
is a basic but adequate 3D GCode generating engine from
Mecsoft. It
requires a little knowledge of tooling and feedrate basics. Input is in .STL or .3DM format.
Machined surfaces can be simulated to
check smoothness
at nominated tool and feedrate parameters.
There
can be some issues with FreeMill. Up-to-date OpenGL drivers are
required. Modification of the post-processor is required for
users of MACH control software. Detailed instructions are
provided in the cnc4free.org ebook. Click the image to access the FreeMill

registration.
