AutoCAD to G-code Converter

Abstract

Numeric Controls are common today for the automated control of machining tools. High speed computer is used as an interface to implement such controls. This study aims to generate a G-code, directly from a drawing, AutoCAD, file and upload the same as a compatible G-Code for the NC Machine. This paper details the approach (concepts) and describes various steps involved in implementation from data extraction to transformation of data to G-Code.
