3D Line to Gcode (clay edition)

3D Line to Gcode is the most powerful solution for generating gcode out of any line in 3D space.

  • Design in your 3D application of choice.

  • Follow a non linear path

  • Convert your .obj files containing lines to gcode.

  • Load, combine and preview .obj files

  • Load, combine and preview .gcode files.

  • Automatic volumetric extrusion based on the points distance.

Settings

Start cmd and End cmd

The “Start command” will appear at the beginning of your gcode.
The “End command” will appear at the end of your gcode. This is useful to add a sequence of steps like zeroing your axis before starting. You can add multiple gcode commands in multiple lines.

Lift Z on travel

Lift the Z axis every time the machine needs to move without printing

Axes color

Change the colors of the view port and paths

Show/Hide travel

Show or hide the travel paths in the preview panel.

Nozzle Size

Size of your nozzle in mm . This will affect the algorithm used to generate volumetric extrusion values.

Add Files

You can add and combine .OBJ files with Gcode files

Output File

Name of your generated file

Minimum Bed Needed

The minimum bed size needed for your path design.

Static and Variable Extrusion (E)

You can either use Static or Variable extrusion. By default you get recommended values based on your nozzle size/thickness and the distance between the points on your path to fill the gaps, but you can change those values manually if you need to.

Preview Path and Code Panel

Preview your printing path, travel path and gcode. You also have a slider so review the print order and direction.
