Gerber2GCode

This project is for converting PCB gerber files to Gcode files. It is based on [gerber2png]: https://github.com/dgonner/gerber2png

for making PCB at home.

Features

• Read from gerber and drill file
• Generate G-Code for axidraw machine and CNC, to paint double side PCB.
• Using new painting algorithm, not the traditional fitting by scan-lines. It draw polygon from outside to inside, and draw lines by its track.
• Shrink PCB to fit the size, and generate locating drill hole.
• Mirro vertical or horizontal
• provide different speed for circle and line， for more precision should be more slower.

Make and Usage

git clone https://github.com/lidonge/gerber2gcode.git

cd gerber2gcode

mvn compile

mvn jar

java -jar ./target/gerber2gcode-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

known issues

• The polygon pad's location is wrong at y-axis, i do not know why! So there is a workaround in config file, if the locationY is wrong, try to change the walue of fixpolygonY.
