## Exporting gcode files from gerber
|
|
|
|
Adapt milling and drilling parameters in `millproject`:
|
|
```bash
|
|
nano millproject
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
First, generate gerber files. These are the same used to order from a vendor. There are no specific settings, just:
|
|
|
|
KiCad PCB Editor → File → Fabrication Outputs → Gerbers
|
|
|
|
* Set "Output directory" to "gerbers/"
|
|
* Select only B.Cu (bottom copper)
|
|
* Click Plot
|
|
* Then Generate Drill Files → Generate
|
|
|
|
Adapt milling and drilling parameters in `millproject`:
|
|
```bash
|
|
nano millproject
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run --rm -i -t -v ".:/data" ptodorov/pcb2gcode
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `.ngc` files for milling and drilling will be generated in the `gcode` directory (must exist).
|
|
|
|
Load the `ngc` file to `gSender` program for the fabrication.
