Kipware's Hidden Advantages - #2

Taking a few lines in this post to outline another "hidden advantage" of Kipware® conversational CNC programming software ... G CODE PROGRAMMING TRAINING.

The design of Kipware® conversational allows the user to create G code programs without the need or the use of a CAD drawing. G code programs are created by simply selecting the shape to machine and then answering a list of on-screen, fill-in-the-blank, plain English questions. From those inputs, the software automatically creates the G code program. Simple and efficient ... and allows even those who are not familiar with G code or G code programming to create powerful and efficient machining programs.

And if the user pays close attention ... they can easily see how those inputs are turned into the G codes that drive the machine. The inquisitive user can match their plain English inputs with the G code output and translate how their input values are turned into G code.

Whether it be seeing how a code of a canned cycle is created ... or seeing how their simple inputs translate into a continuous, repetitive cycle .... many of our users have credited the using of Kipware® conversational with their development and understanding of G code programming.


We take pride in the fact that our real world software design and development has led not only to more efficient manufacturing ... but also to the development of those living and working "in the trenches".
