OPTI-G
This is an optimization program for G-code, and this is done by reorder the cuts, to minimize the distance between them. Use it entirely at your own risk! It can still contain bugs!
The program:
This optimizer is intended for use with 'pcbgcode' which has etch and drill files, but there is no different between how the software handle Etch and Drill files, and other G-code files can also be optimized by this program.
The optimization:
The optimization support where the cut enter and stop at different places, and cuts there enter and exit the same place. Do NOT support G-code, where the order of the cuts between tool change are important, and need to be performed in sequence.
If you are interested in the algorithm used to optimize the G-code more information can be found at this

Installation:
- Download the project and unpack it.
- Now there are two options
- Move the 'Program' folder to location you want, and run the program from here. Make sure you have .NET 4.5 to run the program.
- Or run the setup.exe file in the 'Installation files' folder.
