Open MillPath The controller check

What the LinuxCNC post writes

  • T<n> M6, G43 H<n>
  • Drilling cycles, helical arcs, rigid tapping G33.1
  • Dwell in seconds

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

Not yet confirmed on a machine. This post follows the controller maker's documentation. 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).
