    Looking for NC checking software...

    Hey guys,

    Been looking for a while and this is my first post. I deceided to get back in school and got into the Machine Tool program at my local Technical College. Wondering if you guys can help me find a piece of software...hopefully freeware.

    I'm looking for a program to check the g-code I'm writing by hand. We have one at the school (autocheckernc, I think it's called), but I'd like to have something on the home machine. Any suggestions? Is there freeware to be had or will it have to be purchased. Thanks in advance and I look forward to gleaning all the info I can get my hands on from this site.

    try myCNC software. It's free. Graphic visualization and simulation is available.
