G-code stands for "Geometry" code, a widely-used programming language to control equipment such as 3D printers and CNC machines.

At Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) our members often use Autodesk Fusion and/or VCarve to generate G-code to send to our 3D printers and CNC machines.

Contact Us if you cannot find your answer here on our Wiki or if you notice any information that is outdated.
