MillenniumOS - An "Operations System" for RepRapFirmware
MillenniumOS is an add-on for RepRapFirmware 3.5+ that implements high-level functionality for work-piece probing, tool changes, toolsetting, spindle control, and coolant control. It aims to provide an intuitive platform for novice machinists to make their first cuts confidently and safely on a Millennium Machine.
MillenniumOS provides post-processors for common CAD/CAM packages (currently Fusion360 and others that use the same .cps
format), as well as implementing a gcode dialect that makes machining on a Milo feel a little more like using a 3D printer - that is, the gcode generated by our post-processors can walk the operator through work-piece probing and tool changes that otherwise would be entirely manual or require significant implementation of custom macros to do safely.
