MachiningGuru vs Calculate CNC

MachiningGuru MachiningGuru is a practical CNC companion designed to help machinists, programmers, students, and manufacturing professionals calculate machining parameters, document setups, and visualize G-code directly from an iPhone. Speeds and Feeds Calculator Quickly calculate important machining values using your tool and cutting parameters, including: Spindle speed Feed rate Plunge rate Material removal rate Enter values such as tool diameter, number of flutes, surface speed, chip load, width of cut, and depth of cut. MachiningGuru supports both Imperial and Metric units. Save Machine Setups Save speeds-and-feeds calculations for future reference. Add notes to document important setup information such as: Machine used Tool details Workholding Material Operation notes Recommended adjustments Saved records make it easier to reuse successful machining setups and keep useful shop information organized. Scan G-Code From Photos Import a photo from your phone and use optical character recognition to extract visible G-code. This is useful for reviewing printed programs, handwritten notes, screenshots, or code displayed on another device. Recognized code can be reviewed and edited before visualization. OCR results may vary depending on image quality, lighting, text clarity, and formatting. Interactive G-Code Plotter Preview supported G-code as an interactive 3D toolpath. Rotate, pan, and zoom the view to better understand the programmed movement. Use the plotter to: Review toolpath shape Inspect X, Y, and Z movement Step through programmed points Edit recognized or manually entered G-code Identify potential input or formatting mistakes MachiningGuru is intended as a reference and visualization tool. Always verify calculations, tooling limits, machine capabilities, work offsets, and CNC programs before operating machinery.

Calculate CNC is the machinist's shop-floor toolkit, and the only one that turns a part you sketch into real lathe G-code. THE PROGRAM PROTOTYPER Sketch a turned profile right on your phone. OD, ID, grooves, tapers, fillets, and Calculate CNC posts out Fanuc G-code you can take straight to the control. Lay in roughing and finishing passes, facing, grooving and drilling, preview the profile, and export the program. No CAM seat, no desktop, no $2,000 software. Just your phone on the bench. Then back it up with 40+ calculators and reference charts. Every formula and chart is checked against published standards (ASME, ISO, ANSI, Machinery's Handbook), so you can trust the number, then verify before you cut. Works fully offline. No account, no sign-up, no ads, no tracking.
