Module programs

Easy to use ready made programs that each takes a measurement struct and can output the full G-code.

When working with CNC routing there are some steps that is often needed again and again, like planing surfaces for example, the intention is to gather automated instructions for several of these kinds of tasks in this module.

Hopefully this module will grow with time to provide a larger set of useful programs.

The gcode can be generated by running program.to_gcode()? or by passing it to filesystem::write_project.

You can also combine/merge two or more programs using the .merge(program) method.

Example for the planing program:

use anyhow::Result;
use cnccoder::prelude::*;

fn main() -> Result<()> {
    let measurements = PlaningMeasurements {
        x_length: 100.0,
        y_length: 100.0,
        z_start: 3.0,
        z_end: 0.0,
        z_max_step: 1.0,
        units: Units::Metric
    };

    let tool = Tool::cylindrical(
        Units::Metric,
        20.0,
        10.0,
        Direction::Clockwise,
        20000.0,
        5000.0,
    );

    let mut program = planing(tool, measurements);
    program.set_name("Peng");

    write_project(&program, 0.5)?;

    Ok(())
}
