Centroid Cnc Software

  1. Acorn Cnc12

Probe and Tool Detector Extension and Splitter

Provides two probe sockets within easy reach near your console or on the front of your machine.

Centroid CNC software allows operator machine control through a number of different methods. This Operator's Control Pendant is for when hard buttons are preferred over touch screen controls. Last visit was: Mon Dec 07, 2020 4:48 pm. It is currently Mon Dec 07, 2020 4:48 pm. With this Centroid CNC Mill / Lathe software you can program several lines of code without the USB keylock installed. It will allow you to simulate the controlls of the CNC machines as well.

Leave your TT-1 tool detector plugged into one socket.

Plug your DP-4 or other probe into the second socket when needed, without having to walk around to the electrical cabinet on the back of the machine.

Probe Extension and Splitter: $240

Rotary axis conversion software

G Code reprocessor which converts XYZ part programs into cylindrical parts, by 'wrapping' X or Y around a rotary fourth axis.

Rotary Conversion software: $350

NWDNC

RS232 communications for DOS-based controls.

Receive job files (G codes) from any standard RS232 DNC sender: Cimco, Predator, Extreme DNC, Mastercam, Virtual Gibbs, etc.. No need for INTERLNK and INTERSVR, so no problems with Windows 9x and FAT32.

With two keystrokes, your Centroid control is ready to receive the job. When the complete job has been received, it is automatically loaded and ready to run: just measure your tool lengths, set part zero, and go.

Centroid

NWDNC can also send the current job back out to the DNC station. This is important if you maintain proven jobs in a central storage location.

NWDNC software: $120

PIPETHRD

PIPETHRD is a tapered thread milling G code generator. With it you can mill pipe threads using a single point or tapered full-form cutter.

PIPETHRD software: $120

External CYCLE START and FEED HOLD for M39 and M400 controls

Add large (22mm), easy to reach controls with in-cycle and feed hold indicator lights. Includes pushbutton controls installed in a small pendant box, which you can mount in any convenient location; modified PLC program; and on-site installation.

Software

Auxiliary Emergency Stop button also available.

External CYCLE START and FEED HOLD: $250 + travel for installation
Add $50 for Auxiliary Emergency Stop
