LAGUNA BEACH, Calif. , Aug. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- CNC Broach Tool™ LLC has created a Broach G-Code Generator which can reduce your programming time from hours down to minutes. Programming a broaching cycle for your CNC Lathe or Mill is now as easy as entering 7-10 inputs and pressing a button. The web application will export up to 2000 lines of g-code program which the user can then copy and paste into their CNC program.
Programming a broach tool to cut in a CNC machine can be time consuming. This is because linear broaching in a CNC requires multiple passes which take small amounts of material, usually between .0006" - .0020", per pass. A keyway which has a radial depth of .400" and a depth of cut of .001" per pass, for example, would require 400 passes. When creating a long hand Lathe or Mill program, each pass requires a minimum of 4 lines of G-code. The general layout for each complete pass is as follows:
Position/Reposition on X,Y, Z
Feed in on Z axis
Retract out on X axis
Retract out on Z axis
The example above which has 400 passes would require 1600 lines of g-code. Sometimes the length of the program can be condensed by using a sub-program with incremental moves and multiple calls. This generally works unless you have limited clearance behind the tool. For example: Let's say you have a Ø.750 bore and are using our T6MML tool which fits a Ø.745 min bore. An incremental program with a .150" retract for every pass, will crash after the first pass when it retracts out of the cut on X. In this case, you will need to write a long hand program and set your retract point for each pass to an absolute position of Ø.745 instead of using an incremental position.
To use The CNC Broach Tool Program Generator:
Choose your machine type: Lathe or Mill.
Select the type of program you want to export: Long format or Sub Program
Select which tool you'd like to use
Enter the Bore Diameter, Keyway Width, Radial Depth, Z axis start & end points, Depth of Cut, & IPM
For milling machines enter the feed axis and feed direction
Accept the Terms & Conditions
Copy the code (Ctrl C) and paste (Ctrl P) it into your program

Five years after Amazon announced that it would buy supermarket chain Whole Foods for $13.7 billion, a big new change has just taken place -- on September 1, incoming chief executive Jason Buechel is taking over for John Mackey. "As a co-founder of Whole Foods, I've often explained my relationship to the company with a parent-child metaphor," Buechel wrote in a letter announcing his retirement to Whole Foods Staff in September 2021. The transition took nearly a year and, now, former Chief Operating Officer Jason Buechel is stepping in to lead the high-end supermarket chain.
