CNC Code Shooter Mill

CNC Code Shooter is a simple application created for G-Code programming, a language designed for CNC (computer numerical control) devices in order to help with computer-aided manufacturing operations.

Simple installation routine

The application is easy to install and its purpose is to save some time when it comes to running the same piece of code multiple times.
It allows inputting the code and reviewing it before sending to the machine. Since there is the possibility to save it, you can easily recycle the code for other jobs. Suffice to make the necessary modifications and review it once more before sending it to the machine.
The main application window is pretty simple, but the program reveals a hefty set of features and its versatility as soon as you dive deeper.

Multiple modules available

It comes with two modules, one for milling and the other for lathing operations. Working with either of them requires plenty of knowledge with computer aided machining and a less experienced user cannot rely on the documentation provided by the program, for both modules, despite it being quite extensive.
The panel for sending and receiving the code requires making some specifications, such as providing details about the parity or the baud rate.
The application is sprinkled with tooltips and bits of information here and there, which makes working with it a bit easier; however, keep in mind that this is still an application for the experienced users in the field.

Handy tool for using G-code

CNC Code Shooter is not a tool for every user; the targeted users, however, should appreciate a clean interface and the flexibility of the options. They also benefit from plenty of documentation that is easily accessible.
