I am in need of a 3 axis milling sample program. I am converting my Anilam Crusader M 3 axis mill to LinuxCNC. I use Gibbscam and in order to help me with the post processor they need a sample program that contains gcode that generate lines, circles, tool changes, etc. I sent them a link to the LinuxCNC G Code catalog. Any help is greatly appreciated.
You could send them one of the sample programs that is installed with LCNC. Like chips.ngc.
Keep in mind that your tool changer is going to be specific to your machine and LCNC configuration, especially if the tool change sequence requires anything beyond "M6 Tn G43" in it.
Example - does your machine require the post to raise the head to a safe point before the tool change M-code is commanded, or is that part of the internal change sequence?
