Description
A teach-in application that gives a CNC controlled (conventional) lathe the ability to perform CNC tasks without CNC programming or the need for a CAD or CAM program. CNCL makes it easy to precisely turn a radius or a taper, grind drills and mills, drill (pattern) or tap a hole, broach a gear, knurl (cut) a shaft, engrave a dial, do any pitch (high precision) multi start (spindle sync pulse) threading, turn a spur gear, pulley or radius cutter, mill a helical gear, simply by setting a few parameters. No complex calculations needed, all you need are the dimensions of the part to turn. The build-in tool change and tool library let you select a tool and continue without the need for adjusting positions. Change from Metric to Inches by a click on a button. Backlash compensation is implemented, no need to fit ball screws. For repetitive tasks, a record and play-back function is available. The recorded Gcodes can be saved for use on other types of controllers. A manual is built-in and can be printed.
CNCL is optimized to run on a small 7" touchscreen. The supported controllers are GRBL, grblHAL, Grbl_ESP32, or compatibles, free open source controllers based on affordable (Arduino) hardware. Check the hardware compatibility list in the app for more information.
If you ever wanted to start with CNC, this is the easy and affordable way to do it. Thinking about to CNC your rotary table, checkout CNCR available in the Microsoft store
Trial version: (Free)
CNCL is provided as a 30 days trial version. The trial version is a full version without any limitations. After expiration of the trial version you can buy the app.
App: (€12.99)
To use CNCL after the trial period you can buy the app. This entitles you to use the CNCL app and all new releases without limitations for the lifetime of the app.
