You may be wrong there my friend. Just like g code there are advance functions to make arcs, tangent spiral etc. But you are right about the part that the program should be using those commands instead of the linear movements.

@ Baz Thank you.. Yeah thats write there is no g code in Hiedenhain Controller. So did you used that program to convert this file? Cause now I can input this code into the machine and it will work. Also Do you have the image of what the part looked like?

Baz, Thank you very much for taking some time out to help me. And I dont have the STL file yet but if you already have any simple STL file (3D). Can you show me the example for that? Any simple 3d would do. I just want to see how it works. Thank again. Regards,

I am sorry if i am asking too many questions. ??? I still don't understand. Is here anyone who has done Heidenhain programming? the problem is that I never learned g code before. I only learned Heidenhain programming which I also gave an example: 0 BEGIN PGM Example INCH 1 BLK FORM 0.1 Z X-2...

Thanks for clearing my concept. Your post helped me a lot. And my first question was That I can write a program in Heidenhain controller which does not use g code, it only uses m code and direction are given like this: 0 BEGIN PGM Example INCH 1 BLK FORM 0.1 Z X-2 Y-3 Z-0.5 2 BLK FORM 0.2 X+2...

Thank you very much for replying Will. :D It clears up a lot. Can you please also tell me that does all controls use the G code or only some of them such as Fanuc. Cause When I was learning HiedenHain, I was using M codes only. Or is g code something else?

Hi guys, Sorry if the question sounds silly but I am new to CNC programming. I just took heidenhain programming courses and Now I am able to create/code various designs using its own controller however If I want to make a complex 3d shape then I have to use a CAD/CAM package which converts the...
