The GCODE file format is the native file format used by CNC machines and 3D printers as a means to coordinate the movement and actions of these machines. In the case of FDM 3D printers, the file contains commands to move the extruder to specific locations and the rate with which to extrude the plastic filament onto the build plate.
A GCODE is a plain text file containing lists of commands, with each command appearing on a new line within the file. These commands control how the CNC machine or 3D printer operates and creates a particular 3D object. GCODE is a standard format and is usually generated by 3D printing slicer software from standard 3D model formats such as STL.

The ZIP file is one of the most common types of compressed file types available and is widely used to compress any file type and give great compression results, leading to smaller file sizes. ZIP files were originally released in 1989, and over time, the format has undergone many revisions.
ZIP archives can contain any number of folders and files and can use many different compression algorithms to perform the file compression, though DEFLATE is the most common one in use. The format has built-in support in many operating systems, including Mac OS and Microsoft Windows.
First click the "Upload..." button, select your GCODE file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the GCODE to ZIP conversion has completed, you can download your ZIP file straight away.
We aim to process all GCODE to ZIP conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.
We aim to create the most accurate conversions with our tools. Our tools are under constant development with new features and improvements being added every week.
Yes, of course! We do not store the GCODE file you submit to us. The resulting ZIP file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.
No. All our conversion tools process your GCODE file on our dedicated conversion servers, meaning you can use our tools on low-spec computers, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices and receive your converted ZIP file quickly.
Yes! Our GCODE to ZIP tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.
Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our GCODE conversion tool please consider white-listing our site. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits on some of our tools and processing/conversion times will be longer.
Yes. When you have converted your GCODE to ZIP, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
