GCode to PNG converter for DLP or TFT/LCD Printer
May 26, 2018 09:20AM
Hello,

my name is Stefan (Germany) and i have programmed an GCode to PNG(SVG) converter.
I hope that i will find people that will help me to improve the code or build it in another language. My skills are not big enough to make it in C++ or something like this.

The Converter is free.
At the moment i have make the script in powershell. You will find it there:
[github.com]

I hope you like it. Iam not able, because i didnt have much time, to support it properly. But if you have a problem post it there with the GCode and i will take a look on it when i have time for it.

Perhabs i will find a view people which will help me and perhabs we can build a complete software (open source) which will work on this way that we all can use normal 3D Printer slicers for the DLP 3D Print
becouse the slicers which are aktuell for every printer are very expensive.

Please tell me if you like the idea or not.

Have a nice day
Stefan

Good Morning,

i have make a view changes for speed Improvemend. It works now up to 70% faster.
A Gcode with ~500 layers and 1.500.000 lines now need about 60 seconds.

I will further work on it. The next step is a gui and a Gcode sender and a preview of the first layer.

Also it should than work without gcode that cou can use it like any other tool for that.

I would be really pleasured if you tell me your opinion on that.

Kind regards
Stefan
