Its aim is to parse the contents of a given OpenSBP file, and transform it to make it suitable for use in a Path object. This preprocessor, once placed in the appropriate PathScripts folder, can be used directly from inside FreeCAD, via the GUI importer or via python scripts with: import opensbp_pre opensbp_pre.insert("/path/to/myfile.ngc","DocumentName") DONE Correctly imports single axis and multi axis moves. Stores Jog and Feed speeds Appends Multiaxis Feed speed to G1 moves Jog rates don't append to G0 moves Make single axis feed rates work Imports CG (non-diameter) arcs. Handles CW and CCW spindle speeds if operations are preceded by a comment ('New Path ...) They are split into multiple paths TODO Many other OpenSBP commands not handled ''' import FreeCAD import os, Path AXIS = 'X','Y','Z','A','B' #OpenSBP always puts multiaxis move parameters in this order SPEEDS = 'XY','Z','A','B' # to distinguish python built-in open function from the one declared below if open.__module__ == '__builtin__': pythonopen = open def open(filename): "called when freecad opens a file." docname = os.path.splitext(os.path.basename(filename))[0] doc = FreeCAD.newDocument(docname) insert(filename,doc.Name) def insert(filename,docname): "called when freecad imports a file" "This insert expects parse to return a list of strings" "each string will become a separate path" gfile = pythonopen(filename) gcode = gfile.read() gfile.close() gcode = parse(gcode) doc = FreeCAD.getDocument(docname) for subpath in gcode: obj = doc.addObject("Path::Feature","Path") path = Path.Path(subpath) obj.Path = path def parse(inputstring): "parse(inputstring): returns a list of parsed output string" print "preprocessing..." # split the input by line lines = inputstring.split("\n") return_output = [] output = "" last = {'X':None,'Y':None,'Z':None,'A':None,'B':None} lastrapidspeed = {'XY':"50", 'Z':"50", 'A':"50", 'B':"50" } #set default rapid speeds lastfeedspeed = {'XY':"50", 'Z':"50", 'A':"50", 'B':"50" } #set default feed speed movecommand = ['G1', 'G0', 'G02', 'G03'] for l in lines: # print l # remove any leftover trailing and preceding spaces l = l.strip() if not l: # discard empty lines continue if l[0] in ["'","&"]: # discard comment and other non strictly gcode lines if l[0:9] == "'New Path": # starting new path if any (x in output for x in movecommand): #make sure the path has at least one move command. return_output.append(output) output = "" continue words = [a.strip() for a in l.split(",")] words[0] = words[0].upper() if words[0] in ["J2","J3","J4","J5","M2","M3","M4","M5"]: #multi-axis jogs and moves if words[0][0] == 'J': #jog move s = "G0 " else: #feed move s = "G1 " speed = lastfeedspeed["XY"] for i in range (1, len(words)): if words [i] == '': if last[AXIS[i-1]] == None: continue else: s += AXIS[i-1] + last[AXIS[i-1]] else: s += AXIS[i-1] + words[i] last[AXIS[i-1]] = words[i] output += s +" F" + speed + '\n' if words[0] in ["JA","JB","JX","JY","JZ","MA","MB","MX","MY","MZ"]: #single axis jogs and moves if words[0][0] == 'J': #jog move s = "G0 " if words[0][1] in ['X','Y']: speed = lastrapidspeed["XY"] else: speed = lastrapidspeed[words[0][1]] else: #feed move s = "G1 " if words[0][1] in ['X','Y']: speed = lastfeedspeed["XY"] else: speed = lastfeedspeed[words[0][1]] last[words[0][1]] = words[1] output += s for key, val in last.iteritems(): if val is not None: output += key + str(val) + " F" + speed + "\n" if words[0] in ["JS"]: #set jog speed for i in range (1, len(words)): if words [i] == '': continue else: lastrapidspeed[SPEEDS[i-1]] = words[i] if words[0] in ["MD"]: #move distance with distance and angle. #unsupported at this time continue if words[0] in ["MH"]: #move home #unsupported at this time continue if words[0] in ["MS"]: #set move speed for i in range (1, len(words)): if words [i] == '': continue else: lastfeedspeed[SPEEDS[i-1]] = words[i] if words[0] in ["MO"]: #motors off #unsupported at this time continue if words[0] in ["TR"]: #Setting spindle speed if float(words[1]) < 0: s = "M4 S" else: s = "M3 S" s += str(abs(float(words[1]))) output += s + '\n' if words[0] in ["CG"]: #Gcode circle/arc if words[1] != "": # diameter mode print "diameter mode not supported" continue else: if words[7] == "1": #CW s = "G2" else: #CCW s = "G3" s += " X" + words[2] + " Y" + words[3] + " I" + words[4] + " J" + words[5] + " F" + str(lastfeedspeed["XY"]) output += s + '\n' last["X"] = words[2] last["Y"] = words[3] #Make sure all appended paths have at least one move command. if any (x in output for x in movecommand): return_output.append(output) print "done preprocessing." return return_output print __name__ + " gcode preprocessor loaded."
