IntroductionΒΆ

Sheetah is a plasma CAM software. It allows you to import DXF or SVG drawings, to configure cut parameters and generates G-Codes. Alternatively, it can connect to Klipper for plasma controller and generate G-codes on the fly, while monitoring cut and handling runtime errors (ignition timeout, arc loss, etc).

Planned features:
  • Better user interface for parts. Drag, scale, multiply, rectangle selection, etc

  • Augmented reality to place parts on the machine virtually

  • Configurable post-processor to make G-Code compatible with any plasma controller

  • Complete arc handling instead of discretizing into lines (also convert curves into arcs)

  • Nesting algorithm, possibly with SVGnest

  • Packaged release
