We will learn how each of them work through several examples, and by the end of this tutorial we will be able to fully understand how G-code works, how to read, how to modify and even how to write our own G-code. So, now as we know how to read a line of G-code, we can take a look at the most important or commonly used G-code commands. The most Important/ Common G-code Commands If we want the units in inches, we use the G20 command instead. The unit is mm/min because if we take a look back at the G-code example image, we can see that we have used the command G21 which sets the units to millimiters.

Let’s take a look at a single line and explain how it works. It seems that the “complicated” part of the G-code are all those numbers we see, which are just Cartesian coordinates. If we take a closer look at the code, we can notice that most of the lines have the same structure.

How to read G-code Commands?Īt first glance, when you see a G-code file, it might look a quite complicated but it is actually not that hard to be understood. Similarly, in case of additive manufacturing or 3D printers, the G-code commands instruct the machine to deposit material, layer upon layer, forming a precise geometric shape. In case of a machine tool such as lathe or mill, the cutting tool is driven by these commands to follow a specific toolpath, cutting away material in order to get the desired shape. The G-code commands instruct the machine where to move, how fast to move and what path to follow. We use this language to tell a machine what to do or how to do something. G-code is a programming language for CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines. So, in this tutorial we will learn the basics of the G-code language, what are the most important or common G-code commands and we will explain how they work.

This board does not offer control of power through software - we recommend upgrading the board to take full advantage of LightBurn.If your work or hobby correlates with CNC machines or 3D printers, then understanding what G-code is and how it works is essential for you. Please note that LightBurn does not support the stock M2-Nano board in the popular K40 laser. If it doesn't work, sometimes it only takes a day or two to make the required changes to support a new board in these existing families.

If your controller is GCode, Ruida, Trocen, or TopWisdom based, even if it's not listed it might be supported already - Download the free trial and try it for yourself. More controllers will be added soon, so if you don't see yours listed, send us a message - maybe we're already working on it! Supported Trocen controllers include the AWC708C, AWC608, and TL-3120. Supported Ruida controllers include the RDC6442G/S, RDC6445G, RDC6332G, RDLC-320A, and R5-DSP. Supported GCode controllers,include Grbl, Smoothieware, Grbl-LPC, and Marlin.

We currently support most Ruida, Trocen, TopWisdom, and GCode based controllers. LightBurn talks directly to your laser, without the use of additional software.
