CAM for Weihong NcStudio
Chinese routers and engravers run by Weihong NcStudio (PCI card, USB or handheld versions).
From the maker's documents
What the Weihong NcStudio post writes
- Comments after ', as Weihong's programming manual has them
- Dwell G04 P and G82 P in milliseconds, with no decimal point
- Arcs with R, split at 90 degrees: NcStudio reads I J as incremental or absolute depending on a setting, R is the same either way
- Drilling cycles G81 / G82 / G83 / G73 with G98
- A pause (M5, M0) for each tool change, the tool named in a comment; no G43 (tools are touched off)
Files end in .nc. Every file is read back before export and checked against the simulated toolpath.
Written from Weihong's own NcStudio programming manual. Where Autodesk's Fusion Weihong post differs (comments in ( ), dwell in seconds), the manual is followed.
Machines with a tool magazine: learn the post from one of your files that changes tools.
