FAQ
NC1 to PCX Conversion
What are NC1 files?
DSTV NC1 is the most widely used CNC file format for structural steel fabrication, developed according to the standards of the German Steel Construction Association (DSTV). It contains detailed manufacturing data for steel components, including drilling, cutting, milling, marking, and part dimensions, allowing CAD/CAM systems to communicate directly with CNC machinery. The .nc1 extension is the standard file extension for DSTV NC files.
What are PCX files?
The PCX (Personal Computer Exchange) image file format is associated with PC Paintbrush, an image editing software initially designed for MS-DOS by ZSoft Corporation. At first, PCX files stored a limited range of colors but in time their range was extended to a 24-bit (true color) palette, and PC Paintbrush was adapted for Windows too. Though widely popular during the days of MS-DOS, the PCX format in time lost its appeal and was gradually replaced by formats such as JPEG and PNG.
