CNC-Command Software

The CNC-Command Software Program Allows Entry-Level CNC Operators To Create G-Code To Mark Parts With Data That Changes Frequently.

CNC Command Program for Easy Gcode Creation

The CNC-Command Software Program is included with the 2L PRO Engraving Software Programs.

The CNC-CMD Program allows Entry-Level CNC Operators to create G-Code to mark parts with data that changes from day to day.

The CNC-Operators never need to see or modify the original Engraving program files for safety, security, and error prevention.

Create an unlimited number of templates in the CMD-CMD Program and store them in a database. The CNC Operators simply enter a part number or name to modify the data that is needed for that particular part.

The CNC-CMD program creates the modified G-code and saves it directly to the CNC Network Drive.

Up to 5 different text or barcode data values plus starting and ending serial numbers can be sent to the Engraving software simply by entering a part number. The data can be entered using a keyboard or a barcode scanner to further reduce error.

The CNC-Command Software Program is simple to set up and use.

  1.  A template is created in the 2L Pro Engraving software and the Part Number or Name is stored in the database.
  2.  The Part Number or Name is entered on the simple CNC-CMD form by the CNC Operator.
  3.  An Ask Window opens to enter the variable data. The data request prompts can be modified to ask the user specific questions as needed. Data can be entered into the form by the CNC Operator with a keyboard or by using a barcode scanner if desired. This helps remove entry errors during production.
  4.  Press the button to send the data to the engraving software program and save the newly modified G-Code to the CNC machine network drive.
  5.  The CNC machine can now run the program.

The CNC-Command Software Program allows Entry-Level CNC Operators to create and mark parts with varying data.

Up to 5 fields of data plus Starting and Ending Serial Numbers can be changed by the CNC Operators.

  • Text or 2D Data Matrix Barcode layers can be changed.
  • The current date can be automatically generated.

Once the files are created they can be used over and over by the CNC Operators and the data changed in them as needed. The original files are never touched or modified by the CNC Operators.
