Rig

Rig program takes a standard point-to-point numerical control output file and creates velocity smoothed hexadecimal output suitable for input into a PLC controlling a numerically controlled milling machine. The program has a variety of user definable settings to give the user greater control over the milling machine including tool acceleration and de-acceleration, origin offsets, rotation and backlash.

The program originally in Fortran has been upgraded to C++, making the user interface more conducive to Windows style applications.

The following picture shows the user definable settings and the window that allows them to be edited.
