If you need to drill holes, and lots of them, this is the app for you. This app is designed to output useable machine code for machine shops and home enthusiasts to be able to drill any number of holes. The patterns are flexible and include bolt circle array hole drilling, even spaced hole drilling, and a custom flex drilling pattern where each consecutive row can be adjusted.

Most important of all, the app is designed to be easily imported to a spreadsheet program for further customization. The app is able to output the code with CSV formatting as well as GCODE compatible formatting.

One of the key design features is the lack of G and M codes, as these can be easily added with a spreadsheet program. There are no limits to the size or number of holes you can drill!

The bolt circle array GCODE generator alone makes the app worth the price. It not only generates the necessary X, Y, and Z axis values, but it also incorporates a flexible starting angle parameter, which can come in handy for offset pieces of work.

I should be noted that this software was designed to be used in conjunction with the necessary machine code to operate your CNC machine safely. Different manufacturers have different requirements, as well as native machine codes.

This app assumes no liability for any mishandled or improper use of machinery.
