Com o crescimento do movimento DIY (faça você mesmo), estimulado principalmente pela difusão de componentes e ferramentas como Arduino e impressoras 3D, cada vez mais diversas tecnologias se tornam acessíveis a usuários comuns. Motivado por resultados satisfatórios e precisos, este conceito tem chegado também aos laboratórios de pesquisa para fins de prototipagem. De acordo com Pearce (2012), esta possibilidade dá início à era das máquinas livres, onde tanto software quanto hardware são disponibilizados de maneira gratuita. Baseado neste conceito, o presente trabalho desenvolveu uma máquina CNC (Comando Numérico Computadorizado) de software e hardware abertos, visando o baixo custo e fácil reprodução.

CNC (Computer Numerical Controlled) Machining is a means to remove material using high speed, precision machines that use a wide variety of cutting tools to create the final design. CAM (computer aided manufacturing) software, in conjunction with the CAD (computer aided design) model provided by the customer, is used to program the instructions the machines will use to produce parts. Because a computer controls the machine’s movement, the horizontal, vertical, and rotational axes can all move simultaneously to create everything from simple straight lines to complex geometric shapes. However, despite advancements in tooling and CNC controls, some limitations still exist inCNC machining, and not all profiles and features can be created. These limitations will be discussed later in this guide.

This breakout board for Allegro’s A4988 microstepping bipolar stepper motor driver features adjustable current limiting, over-current and over-temperature protection, and five different microstep resolutions (down to 1/16-step). It operates from 8 V to 35 V and can deliver up to approximately 1 A per phase without a heat sink or forced air flow (it is rated for 2 A per coil with sufficient additional cooling). This board ships with 0.1″ male header pins included but not soldered in.

Ele suporta todo o pipeline 3D – modelagem, rigging, animação, simulação, renderização, composição e rastreamento de movimento, até mesmo edição de vídeo e criação de jogos. Usuários avançados empregam a API do Blender para scripts Python para personalizar o aplicativo e escrever ferramentas especializadas; muitas vezes estes são incluídos em versões futuras do Blender. O Blender é adequado para indivíduos e pequenos estúdios que se beneficiam de seu pipeline unificado e processo de desenvolvimento responsivo. É desenvolvido sob licença de código aberto e está disponível para Windows, Mac e Linux. O Blender é licenciado como GNU GPL, de propriedade de seus colaboradores. Por essa razão, o Blender é um software gratuito e de código aberto, para sempre.

OpenSCAD é um software para criação de modelos CAD 3D sólidos. É um programa gratuito e está disponível para Linux/UNIX, Windows e Mac OS X. Ao contrário da maioria dos softwares gratuitos para criação de modelos 3D (como o Blender), ele não se concentra nos aspectos artísticos da modelagem 3D, mas sim nos aspectos CAD. Portanto, pode ser o aplicativo quando se planeja criar modelos 3D de peças de máquinas, mas com certeza não é apropriado quando se está mais interessado, por exemplo, em criar filmes animados por computador. OpenSCAD é um Software Livre lançado sob a Licença Pública Geral versão 2.

The SolveSpace is a free (GPLv3) parametric 3d CAD tool. Aside from being a controller, it’s also CAD software, so in that respect, it might be more comparable to Fusion 360 than LightBurn. It doesn’t feature things like live jogging, but it does a fine job at basics such as creating a G-code toolpath and assembling a grid for the laser cutter. It’s also got an active forum if you need community help. SolveSpace prepares CAM data for models designed both in SolveSpace and other programs, can modify parts in the program, exports CAM files with cutter radius compensation

O Código G ou G-code é uma linguagem de máquina universal utilizada em equipamentos CNC e impressoras 3D, constituída por mais de 500 comandos, que permite a criação de programas ou “roteiros” de fabricação de produtos. Para isso, são usadas letras e números, que indicam as tarefas e as posições das ferramentas da máquina durante o processo de produção. Sua finalidade é comandar os movimentos dos motores das máquinas nas dimensões x, y e z, a velocidade e o caminho a percorrer. A interpretação do código é feita por firmwares, como o GRBL, o Repetier e o Marlin.

This page tries to describe the flavour of G-codes that the RepRap firmwares use and how they work. The main target is additive fabrication using FFF processes. Codes for print head movements follow the NIST RS274NGC G-code standard, so RepRap firmwares are quite usable for CNC milling and similar applications as well.

STL é um formato de arquivo nativo do software CAD de estereolitografia criado pela 3D Systems.Chuck Hull, o inventor da estereolitografia e fundador da empresa 3D Systems, relata que a extensão do arquivo é uma abreviatura de eSTereoLitografia. Os arquivos STL descrevem apenas a geometria da superfície de um objeto tridimensional, sem qualquer representação de cor, textura ou outros atributos comuns do modelo CAD (Computer Aid Design). O formato STL admite representações ASCII e binárias, sendo que os arquivos binários são mais comuns, pois são mais compactos. O formato descreve uma superfície bruta dividida em triângulos usando um sistema de coordenadas cartesianas tridimensionais.

OBJ (or .OBJ) is a geometry definition file format first developed by Wavefront Technologies for its Advanced Visualizer animation package. The file format is open and has been adopted by other 3D graphics application vendors. The OBJ file format was originally used in graphics design as a neutral interchange file format. With the development of multicolour and multi-material printing, the file format was later adopted by the 3D printing industry. In terms of popularity, OBJ is second only to STL. However, unlike STL which only stores geometry data, OBJ can store geometry, colour, texture, and material data.

Grbl (pronounciation Gerbil - jûrbl) is a no-compromise, high performance, low cost alternative to parallel-port-based motion control for CNC milling. Does not control extruders. It is an open source, embedded, high performance g-code-parser and CNC milling controller written in optimized C that will run on a straight Arduino

By Simen Svale Skogsrud

Motion control for machines that make things

Grbl is software for controlling the motion of machines that make things. If the maker movement was an industry, Grbl would be the industry standard. What Grbl has to do in 2kb: (1) parse G-Code, a cryptic computer language hailing from the 50s used to describe the idealised actions of milling machines; (2) build a model of those actions and translate them into a physically possible sequence of motions for the given machine; and (3) execute these motions by sending a unwavering stream of concerted high frequency pulses to the stepper motors that are actually moving the tool.

Heavily inspired by Grbl and LinuxCNC, µCNC started to take shape in the second half of 2019, in an attempt to come out with a G-Code interpreter/controller software/firmware that is both compact and powerful as Grbl and flexible and modular as LinuxCNC.
