CAM for Carbide Motion

Shapeoko and Nomad machines from Carbide 3D, run from Carbide Motion.

Checked by the controller's own parser

Open MillPath The controller check

What the Carbide Motion post writes

M6 T<n> so Carbide Motion runs its tool change (and BitSetter, where fitted)
G20 / G21, G90
Arcs with I J; holes as moves

Files end in .nc. Every file is read back before export and checked against the simulated toolpath.

The plain GRBL post would only pause; this one lets Carbide Motion handle the change.

Where this post comes from

The controller's own parser, in our tests: GRBL 1.1h (gnea/grbl) reads every test job without an error
The controller maker: Carbide 3D community: M6 in Carbide Motion and the BitSetter

Not yet confirmed on a machine. This post follows the sources above. Before the first real job, run the controller check in the air, or compare with a file that already runs on your machine (Export options → Check this post).
