What is file format conversion?

File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "NC") to another (referred to as "M"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, NC file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format NC to format M becomes essential.

So, how can we perform NC to M file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format NC and transforming it into format M. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of NC to M converters.

We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the NC file:

  • Please indicate on your computer the source file NC, the format of which you are going to change
  • Load the NC file to the application
  • Select the output format of the M file (the one that we want to achieve)
  • Select the location to save the output file M on the disk (the place where the program will save the converted file)
  • Confirm conversion
  • Wait for a moment
  • Enjoy the converted M file that can be found in the location selected in step 4
