Pre-Configured G Code Conversion Software for Fanuc / Okuma / Haas & More
Innovative & Groundbreaking
Think About Your Shop Floor In A NEW WAY
In an effort to employ the best machine for the job, today’s shop floors are a mix of CNC machine types and CNC controls. With each machine requiring different G code formatting … the inevitable result is “control incompatibility” … a major cause of shop floor bottlenecks and reduced output.
Proven in-the-trenches since 1986 !!
Since 1986 when Raytheon Corporation employed Kentech Inc. to solve their control incompatibility issues … Kentech Inc. has been a leader and pioneer in G code conversion software. Our applications along with constant development have helped thousands of manufacturers around the world realize SEAMLESS control compatibility.
No CNC control incompatibility?
I know … mind blowing right?
WHY G Code Conversion ?
There are many reasons why Kipware G code conversion software can help … have you encountered any of these ?
- You developed a CNC program for one machine only to find out that the machine time was not available … and you couldn’t run the job on the other machine unless you re-program it all over again.
- You feel trapped into buying new equipment with the same CNC controls as the ones you now own for fear of the “control incompatibility” issue.
- You are a machine tool salesperson who loses sales because of the “control incompatibility” issue.
- Your shop is divided and limited because some programmers know one control and some know another control.

CNC XChange vs. RE-POSTING
Whether buying a new machine or having to run a job on another machine ... G code conversion through CNC XChange will save your shop time and money.
When you need to run a proven G code program on another machine with a different format … re-posting the program through your CAD/CAM system costs you time and money. Oftentimes the program running on the shop floor contains edits … maybe minor, maybe major … speeds, feeds, chamfer edits, etc.. When you re-post that program you lose all those little subtleties … which make the difference between a good part and a part out-of-spec.
Purchasing a new machine with a new CNC control can mean hours of re-programming or re-posting to get your product line back up to speed. Does that really seem like the best approach? It’s not. The best approach is to convert those proven G code programs into the new format … and retain all the subtleties and shop-floor-edits to ensure the new part is identical to the old part. CNC XChange can do that … in seconds … not hours.

The CNC XChange Details
Powerful Source Code
Kipware® CNC XChange is a “hard coded” application meaning that all the industry standard conversion options are written directly into the source code … no set-up by the user is required here. All G code formatting, all canned cycle conversion, all work offset and height offset conversions as well as all other industry standard conversions are automatically converted through the powerful CNC XChange source code. Source code conversions can be combined with an UNLIMITED number of user defined conversions … all done at once … in seconds … JUST PRESS CONVERT.
Every Machine Is Different
Correct … and that is why CNC XChange also contains powerful USER OPTIONS to allow the user to easily customize the converted output to suit any scenario. Whether something simple like converting an M03 to an M13 … or converting G00G91G28Z0 to G00Z50.0 .. or whatever … the USER OPIONS can handle them all. Over the years we have perfected the USER OPTIONS to handle any conversion required. And all customized options are all executed at the same time as the source code conversions … JUST PRESS CONVERT.
