Converts G0/G1 GCode commands to G2/G3 (arc) commands and back again. This can greatly compress most GCode files and potentially improve quality by preventing planner starvation. It is especially useful when streaming over a serial connection (OctoPrint, Pronterface, Slicer Direct Printing), but has some potential advantages in other cases too depending on your firmware and board.
This software was designed for 3D printers but should also be useful in other cases.
Gcode Visualization for G2/G3 (arc) GCode Commands
Most gcode visualizers do NOT correctly display G2/G3 commands. This will cause the output to look like a mess, but it does NOT mean the ArcWelded GCode commands are incorrect or broken. It is likely that they will print just fine provided arc commands are enabled within your printer's firmware.'
Installation is a simple matter of downloading and extracting the latest release. You can find all of the releases here, with the latest release on top. Simply scroll to the bottom of the release and download the proper archive for your OS.
The archive will contain two folders:
•bin - Here you will find the two console applications: ArcWelder and ArcStraightener. Just copy these to your local machine and you can run them from the command line, from a script, or directly within most slicers. See the sections below for instructions on how to use these applications.
•lib - This folder contains pre-compiled ArcWelder libraries that can be integrated into applications. The GcodeProcessorLib library has functions for parsing gcode, tracking the printer's state and position, as well as several other goodies. The ArcWelder library (requires GcodeProcessorLib) contains the core welding algorithm.
From the repository root, create a build directory, generate makefile, and build:
The resulting console application is located in build/ArcWelderConsole/. You might want to create the build directory out of the repository, or make git ignore it, to avoid a dirty tree.
Running ArcWelder Console
Once ArcWelder (or ArcWelder.exe for Windows) is downloaded and copied to your machine, you can execute it in the following form: Overwriting the source file If you want to overwrite the source file, no target path is needed. For example, if you are running the Windows version from the root of your C drive and want to weld a file called C:\thing.gcode, you could run the following command from the terminal: That will replace thing.gcode with a welded version of the file. Creating a new file If you want your original file preserved, you can specify a target path. Windows example: Linux/Raspbian example: That would create a new file called thing.aw.gcode and would leave the thing.gcode file alone. You can also supply a path for the source and target gcode files: Note: You may need to enclose the paths in quotes, for example, if there are any spaces.
ArcWelder Console Help
The console program will output all of the options with the following command for Windows:
Arcwelder Version Information
Run the following command to view the current version, which is very useful for debugging purposes, or if you submit a github issue:
This is the opposite of ArcWelder. It will find any G2/G3 commands and replace them with G1 commands. This is useful for testing firmware settings and generally seeing what the firmware is doing with your arc commands.
The latest version includes several implementations of the arc interpolation algorithms from several different firmware types and versions. This tool can be extremely useful for tracking down firmware issues when running G2/G3 commands.
