It happened. James Watt didn't use this peculiar linkage because he
wanted to, but because someone had a patent on the "crank"

This is not true in the
I am not an attorney so this is not legal advice.
regarding patents -
It is my understanding you can produce, reproduce any patented item for your
own use and not be in violation of the patent restrictions. You cannot
distribute in any fashion.
regarding copywrite -
I do not know.

Hi,
I'm right now working on the introduction of the dynamics / kinematics of
arbitrary virtual machines

Dear Anders,
thanks for explanations.

In my special case this is not a problem. I'm working on a tool path
generation algorithm, the output will be a dense list of tool positions
that I could directly use for the simulation. So I don't need g-code

Hi all,
There are about three or four parts (objects) that make up a
simulation. Some are sort of ready, some are not.

Hi,
a very good simulation software for generated g-code and how it would be
executed are "the metacut utilities". It can simulate the stock and the
used tools to show how it will be processed.
Ciao,

Ah, OK. I do need a visualisation of the cutting process, but a
visualisation of the machine would be nice on our simple 3-axis mill.
> Look at what Anders Wallin is doing with opencamlib
did you look at vismach under sim
The 'vismach' directory contains a number of configurations that
display a 3D model of the simulated machine.
not really sure what you might be looking for

Ah. Really? I can import my one G-Code and simulate it? Thanks for the
tip, I'll see what VisualMill can do. If I remember correctly it's not
that expensive.
Does anyone know a suitable framework/library
Mechsoft Visual Mill will do what you want but it is not free, but works
well.

Hello,
not directly EMC related, but maybe you have some advice for me:
I'm looking for a way to simulate a 5axes milling process. I'd like to
create an animation so show how the material is removed form the stock.
