.CNC File Extension
CNC File Format
A CNC file is a path file created by QuickCAM Pro, a program used to create cutter paths for machining 3D parts on a milling machine. It contains path instructions for cutting a 3D part using a CNC milling machine. CNC files can be created from 3D models or 2D images.
CNC milling machines are used to remove material from an object using rotary cutters. These machines are controlled by computers to execute pre-programmed machine control commands. The CNC file is created by QuickCAM Pro to contain a path that is loaded into a CNC milling machine to direct its milling.
NOTE: CNC stands for computer numerical control.
How to Open CNC Files
To open a CNC file, you will need QuickCAM Pro or a compatible software that supports CNC file formats.
Can CNC Files be Converted?
CNC files are specific to CNC machine tool paths and are not typically meant for conversion to other formats.
