Researching cnc workings better, seems like the conversion process is more involved and that DXF is a suitable format for generating CNC g-code from. DXF export from jscad is very reliable so far. thanks all for the replies

@danmarshall said in threejs integration:

renderer

I alao strongly feel like the rendering is much inferior to threejs and I am facing the same challenges - material lighting are way better in threejs. And thinking about somehow taking the output of jscad and drawing in threejs.

@hrgdavor
thanks!!. i'll check it out as see what options are there

@z3dev hello
Thanks for the ansewe. I have poligons built, only targeting 2D shapes.

What i am looking for is a library or way to export from javascript a cnc common file.

I do understand that conversion from dxf or svg might be possible but I expect other issues as units or conversion issues and it could require an extra step.

Hello

I have some polygons I want to export in a common format for CNC cutting (2D).

Tried searching around, I know there DXF and STL export in jscad but could not find a straightforward library or way to export a polygon from JSCAD to a CNC format (like STEP).

Are there any options to accomplish this using jscad functions or an external library?

Thanks!

@gilboonet Thanks for the response. I believe you mean the "sides" are rendered using polygons. indeed they are lots of polygons. I might give that a try using the 2d constructive geometry. i've gotten the result right using the fromfakepolygons routine.

@z3dev
I have got it working using the routine pointed at by you. it was a bit confusing as it throws error for polygons with more than "2 dimension" and the axis was different.

@z3dev thanks!

@gilboonet The whole 2d contour is one single polygon of points. where should i get multiple polygons from? from the sides?
