Abstract

This study introduces the design and implementation of a general CNC controller for 3-axis CNC and 3D 
printer machines using LabVIEW software. The controller features an interpreter module for translating 
G&M code into machine and control commands. This module processes NC code generated by CAM 
systems or manually by the user, extracting vital data such as motor velocities, positions, spindle speed, 
and coordinate modes for simulation and control purposes. Additionally, we developed a user-friendly manmachine interface (MMI) to improve usability and monitor machine operations and program execution. 
This research highlights the importance of integrating mechanical, electronic, and software systems, 
emphasizing the role of mechatronics system design in modern manufacturing.
