2. FreeCAD - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeCAD

   FreeCAD uses open-source libraries from the field of computing science; among them are Open CASCADE Technology [3][4] (a CAD kernel), Coin3D (an incarnation of Open Inventor), the Qt GUI framework, and Python, a popular scripting language. FreeCAD itself can also be used as a library by other programs.

3. Numerical control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_control

   A CNC metal lathe with the door open. In machining, numerical control, also called computer numerical control (CNC), [1] is the automated control of tools by means of a computer. [2] It is used to operate tools such as drills, lathes, mills, grinders, routers and 3D printers. CNC transforms a piece of material (metal, plastic, wood, ceramic ...

4. CNC router - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNC_router

   A CNC wood router is a computer-controlled router tool that carves/etches objects or images into the face of a piece of wood. [1] The CNC Router is ideal for hobbies, engineering prototyping, product development, art, and production works. The CNC works on the Cartesian coordinate system (X, Y, Z) for 3D motion control; however, typical CNC ...

5. LinuxCNC - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LinuxCNC

   LinuxCNC is a software system for numerical control of machines such as milling machines, lathes, plasma cutters, routers, cutting machines, robots and hexapods. It can control up to 9 axes or joints of a CNC machine using G-code (RS-274NGC) as input. It has several GUIs suited to specific kinds of usage (touch screen, interactive development).

6. History of numerical control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_numerical_control

   The history of numerical control (NC) began when the automation of machine tools first incorporated concepts of abstractly programmable logic, and it continues today with the ongoing evolution of computer numerical control (CNC) technology. The first NC machines were built in the 1940s and 1950s, based on existing tools that were modified with ...

7. G-code - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-code

   G-code (also RS-274) is the most widely used computer numerical control (CNC) and 3D printing programming language. It is used mainly in computer-aided manufacturing to control automated machine tools, as well as for 3D-printer slicer applications. The G stands for geometry. G-code has many variants. G-code instructions are provided to a ...
