Focus - PC Based CNC Control System

In April of this year we released GCode Sender 4-Axis, a software that will continue the course of our old GCode Sender. However, because our new software has started to acquire features that completely separate it from the classic GCode Sender, we decided to change its name.

Our new PC based CNC control software from today goes by the name Focus, continues to be compatible with GRBL Firmware and has all the features that its previous version had.

GCode Sender 4-Axis Launched

After our engagement with GRBL for ESP32 we decided to expand the capabilities of our GCode Sender and create a new control software for 4-Axis CNC Machines. Our new GCode Sender 4-Axis , which is now available for purchase through our website, replaces our old 3-axis software, is fully compatible with the classic 3-Axis GRBL for AVR, the new Grbl_Esp32 and of course the SourceRabbit 4-Axis CNC Motherboard . We plan to implement many new tools and features to the GCode Sender 4-Axis. On our next update we will add a new better User Interface (UI). Stay tuned.

End of Support for the "classic" GCode Sender

The course of SourceRabbit GCode Sender began in 2015 when Nikos Siatras ( GitHub , Twitter ), CEO of SourceRabbit, decided to build the controllers of the company's CNC machines, on the GRBL firmware. From 2015 until 2021, the GCode Sender was improved and acquired new features that were fully compatible with the CNC machines we manufacture. At the beginning of 2021 we started to build a new multi-axis software, GCode Sender 4-Axis , which replaced the "classic" GCode Sender and which we will fully support from now on. The source code of the classic GCode Sender will remain available on GitHub for everyone who wants to see or use the code but unfortunately we will stop supporting it.

Our new machines will be shipped with a license for the GCode Sender 4-Axis

From today, June 29, 2021, all our machines will be shipped with a license for the GCode Sender 4-Axis software. Also a license will be given, completely free of charge, to all our customers who have purchased a CNC machine the last 3 months (from March 29 until today).
