HI!!!!!
Is it possible to do linear interpolation using CAD to DMC software for the models designed in AUTOCAD?

Hello Rahul,

 

  Galil's CAD to DMC software is a legacy product and no longer officially supported by Galil so the information I can provide is somewhat limited.

 

  There are a number of software companies that make similar software (CamSoft and Mach 3 for example) that take .dxf files from Autocad and convert them into dmc code for use on Galil controllers. Many of our customers have used these packages on multiple applications along with our controllers.

 

  Depending on the complexity of the motion, a CAD to DMC program may not be necessary. Simple straight line segments and arcs for example can be easily programmed directly using Galil's Vector Mode of motion.
