New Release - Editing G Code is SOOO Yesterday !!

Since 1986 ... Kentech Inc. has been a pioneer and leader in G code conversion software ... creating both custom and general use applications that are un-matched in power and features in the industry. Now Kentech Inc. is pleased to announce the release of version 13.0.0 of our KipwareXC® - G Code Conversion Software.

Details are below ... or watch the video :

KipwareXC® is a powerful, feature rich application that can convert G code text files created in a format for one machine and control and auto-convert them to a format for any other machine and control. Using a mixture of pre-defined conversion options ... along with user specified conversions created through our unique "code macro" language ... KipwareXC® will take the control incompatibility issue completely off your shop floor.

Users have the ability to create an unlimited number of KipwareXC® PROFILES. Profiles are basically the specs that tell the software what-to-convert-into-what. The Profile uses a mix of pre-defined conversion options that can include :

• Radius X Lathe -- Diameter X Lathe -- X/Y Mill Conversions
• Conversion of X coordinates from DIAMETER to / from RADIUS values
• A Variety of Circular Interpolation options like convert R to INCREMENTAL I-J-K or to ABSOLUTE I-J-K
• Convert INCREMENTAL I-J-K to / from ABSOLUTE I-J-K
• Axis Reversal
• A powerful variety of DECIMAL conversion options
• ... and much more.

Having the ability to create an unlimited number of Profiles allows the user to perform an unlimited number of conversions so multiple machines and controls can be accommodated. KipwareXC® also gives the user the ability to piggy-back Profiles ... perhaps doing some conversions initially through one Profile then running that converted file through another Profile to perform additional conversions ... all automatically.

KipwareXC® also has a powerful BATCH CONVERSION option where users can place files to be converted into one central folder and KipwareXC® can automatically convert all the files at one time.

KipwareXC® contains (12) conversions for circular interpolation alone !!

KipwareXC® can perform multiple conversions on lathe type G code programs.

KipwareXC® has a powerful - G CODE SPECIFIC EDITOR where both the original file and the converted file can be viewed side-by-side.

Our unique CODE MACRO language allows users to describe complex conversions such as :

• Convert M91 to M180
• Convert G02R--- to G112L---
• Convert G78P---Q---D--- to G87U---W---F---
• Break up lines of code into multiple lines
• Add additional lines of code
• Completely remove lines of code
• Completely remove specific letter addresses

The powerful, G code specific EDITOR allows the user to view both the original file and the converted file side-by-side. The Editor can also be called independent of a conversion process to simply edit any G code program. Independent editing functions are available for each file and include :

• ADD / REMOVE Sequence Numbers
• ADD / REMOVE Spaces for readability.
• COLOR HIGHLIGHTING using a user defined color pallet.
• Powerful XC-OVERRIDE feature allows the user to specify things like ... add 5% to all Spindle speeds ... subtract 1" from all Z values ... divide all Feedrates by 3% .... almost anything else.
• G and M code separation for machines that do not allow multiple G or M codes per line.
• ONE BUTTON INCH to METRIC or METRIC to INCH conversions.

If KipwareXC® was just a G code Editor ... it would be phenomenal. The ability to create custom Profiles and auto-convert G code puts it in a class by itself. This latest version continues our march as the pioneer and leader in G code conversion software. We continue to assist shops to eliminate the control incompatibility issue from their shop floors ... and with it all the inefficiencies and problems they produce.

If your shop floor contains multiple CNC's with multiple controls ...we would love an opportunity to demonstrate the power and features of KipwareXC®. The best way is through a live, online meeting through our Cisco Webex account.
