A client has asked me if I can give them a .nc file so they can directly input into their cnc machines.
I know that I can save an autocad drawing, or objects in a drawing, as a .DXF file.
I also know that i can purchase, or obtain an open-source version of, software that will then convert the .DXF file to a .nc file.
Currently, my company does not do 3-d models.
I have not dealt with this before, so, I am wondering if my drawings will need to be 3-d in order for the .nc code to be correctly read.
Is anybody familiar with this?
