Experimental CNC Toolpath Generator

hallr

This is an experimental toolpath generator designed for CNC machining. While it does not yet produce G-code, it allows you to probe a 3D mesh using various tool types, including ball-end, square-end, and tapered-end tools.

How to Use:

  • Select a Mesh: Use the "Select Mesh" button to choose the 3D mesh you want to probe.

  • Define a Bounding Shape: Use the "Select Bounding Shape" button to specify a closed, 2D XY shape that will act as the boundary for the probing operation.

This tool is intended for testing and visualizing toolpaths before generating final CNC instructions.
