GCodeInfo

thingiverse

GCodeInfo, a command-line tool for analyzing G-code files, has been updated to version 0.98 and now includes an edit mode (experimental). With this feature, you can change print speed, extrusion rate, layer height, extruder temperature, bed temperature, add offsets to X, Y, and Z positions, and modify fan settings by percent for specified layers in a G-code file. This update allows users to optimize their slicer settings and print times for their 3D printer. The tool calculates various print details including print time, used filament, YX move distance, printed object dimensions, average print speeds, number of layers, layer details, speed distribution, weight, and price of the printed object. It works with Java 1.7 and is available on GitHub. Previous updates added guessed information about print material and diameter, weight and price calculations based on guessed material info, and undocumented options for debugging. To use GCodeInfo, call the command "java -jar GCodeInfo.jar" followed by a mode (mplnscg) and the G-code file. For example, "GCodeUtil mp /tmp/object.gcode" shows model info and printed layer details. In edit mode, use "GcodeUtil e speed=-10" to reduce speed by 10% or "GcodeUtil e delete" to remove specified layers. The tool outputs model details with speed distribution, printed layer details, and non-printed layer details upon request.
