A browser-based CNC milling simulator that checks G-code against a machine, its controller, fixtures, and successive part setups.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-13 issue.
For
CNC mill owners checking multi-setup G-code
Worth noticing
Later setups are marked stale after an earlier change; placements and zeros are kept, with a placement check if the seated face changes.

Field notes

A project contains stock plus each setup’s machine, fixture, placement, and programs. Editing an earlier setup marks later ones stale for recomputation while preserving placements and zeros; if the resting face changes, the page says it asks for placement review. Findings link back to the simulation moment and source line. The page also flags unsupported or unconfirmed behavior, including G41 cutter compensation.
