- FastBEAMâ„¢ Editor is a unique program that allows you to create NC1 files for structural components. For detailing directly from shop drawings the program offers a spreadsheet type data entry system which eliminates 'drafting'. You simply enter in the co-ordinates taken from the drawing. Or import CAD files including BoCAD, X Steel and DSTV.
- Featured products. Simple, secure, ready-to-use remote access software for professionals and enterprises.
This free version allows you to technical 2D drawings, compare designs, etc. It is a program for advanced CAD users. It is available for Windows Mac and Linux. Here is another free alternative to AutoCAD for experienced users. This is a free drafting software providing high performance and advanced CAD tools. .nc1 - DSTV-CNC Data File. The NC1 data files are related to BIMSoft CMS. NC1 file is a DSTV-CNC Data File. DSTV format is an industrial standard defined by the German Steel Construction Association. A DSTV file is a text file in ASCII format. The BIMSoft CMS seems to be no longer supported.
Once NC (DSTV or Deutscher Stahlbau-Verband) files must be imported from a 3D CAD system for steel construction it is desirable to check the model in a graphical view again. With the ConstruSteel DSTV Viewer & Editor you can check DSTV files visually and make necessary changes.
Visual check
A customizable and expandable article database with Excel import functionality will help to set up a standardized way of working. Parameters of the editable materials are for example: quality, length, quantity, angles (also partial), holes and numerations. It is also possible to view information about scribing, layout marking, contour marking.
The DSTV Viewer & Editor is often used in practice to check DSTV files and change them before the files are sent to a machine.

gCodeViewerFree Nc1 Viewer Online
is a visual GCode visualizer, viewer and analyzer in your own browser! It works on any OS in almost any modern browser (chrome, ff, safari 6, opera, ie10 should work too). All you need to do - is drag your *.gcode file to the designated zone.Current features include:
- Visualize GCode in 2D, layer by layer
- Show retracts and restarts
- Show print/move/retract speeds
- Display only part of layer, animate sequence of layer printing
- Show two layers simultaneously so you can check overhangs
- Adjust line width to simulate print more closely
- Gcode viewer will try to parse nozzle and filament diameters from gcode, but it may fail to do so. In that case you will need to set it manually in 'Printer Info' tab
- Analyze GCode
- Print time, amount of plastic used, layer height, etc. for whole file and for single layer
- Reference visualized part to GCode file (i.e. select a certain part of 2d visualization, switch to GCode view - it will highlight list of lines responsible for visualized piece)
- Multiplatform, available online (but works offline too), works locally (doesn't upload you g-code anywhere or download anything but application itself)
- 3D visualization (I don't know what for, it's dull and useless.. need to rewrite it from scratch)
- And yeah, it's slow, memory hungry and only supports modern browsers
- Totally open source so you can use it as you like
