3.6 Prepare the G-code File
G-code is the most widely used computer numerical control (CNC) programming language. It is used mainly in
computer-aided manufacturing to control automated machine tools.
G-code instructions are provided to a machine controller that tells the motors where to move, how fast to move, and
what paths to follow.
