Why Are So Many Makers Using Mach4?
Mach4 turns a typical computer into a CNC machine controller. Mach4 is completely new software. It was written from the ground up to be expandable, flexible, and extremely responsive for use with very large files. Mach4 was designed for simple hobby machines and still serves this purpose well. When quality, speed, and the ability to use or learn industrial style controls and methods are what is needed, Mach4 is the correct choice. The standard Mach4 installer will control mills, drills, lathes, and routers.
Converts Your PC Into a CNC Controller
Mach4 will convert your PC, into a full featured CNC controller for up to 6 axis. Replace expensive custom hardware with this software solution.
Works with Milling Machines, Lathes & Router Tables
Mach4 has been successfully used to control a variety of machine tools including Milling machines, lathes, routers tables and drills.
Easily Control Peripheral Devices
Mach4 can turn your Spindle On or Off & Control the Speed.Control Multiple Relays, Manual Pulse Generators and works with Touch Screen monitors.
Wizards
Wizards are “mini-programs” that extend the capabilities of Mach4. Wizards can be written by anyone and are designed to allow users to quickly perform routine or convenient operations without the need to have a pre-written G-Code file.

What is a Plugin?
A plugin (or plug-in) allows people to add custom functionality to Mach4.
Mach4’s modular design allows features to be added and removed without affecting the systems operation. This aspect greatly enhances the flexibility for different applications, machines and uses.
– Different modules of the core can be removed, added, or created to create a custom software package for OEM’s, re-sellers, and educational organizations.
– Everything is customizable, Make the software your Own
Create Proprietary add-ons for your version
Custom Installers
Rapid Application Development (RAD) with our Screen Design Mode
Increase or decrease functionality with Plug Ins and Add-ons
Customizable M Codes for Machine Specific Functions
– No fixed amount of IO
IO registered to system without any software interference between devices.

How do I cut My Drawing? Can I Load it Directly Into Mach4?
Transforming an idea into an actual part is a 3-step process: CAD –> CAM –> Control. Mach4 is the Control part of the process and requires G-code files produced by a CAM or Wizard program.
Wizard programs are the most simple for those new to CNC.
Advanced users/machinist will often write their own G-code.

What is CAD?
Computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided drafting (CAD), or computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) is the process of using a computer to design and draw the parts you would like to create. The CAD files then need to go through a CAM process to become the G-code files that Mach3/Mach4 uses.
What Is G-Code?
Used mainly in automation, G-code is the common name for the most widely used numerical control (NC) programming language, which has many implementations. G-code is sometimes called G programming language.
What Is CAM?
Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) is a subsequent process after CAD. The CAD files are loaded into the CAM program, the desired machining parameters (tools, cut depths, etc) are chosen, and toolpaths (in the form of a gcode file) are created which then control the machine tool. The G-code files are formatted based on the postprocessor chosen.
