Hurco and MasterCam

[beaver]

Do any of you use MasterCam on Hurco machines. We have two 9 year old VMC with UltiMax control and would like to start using some type of Cam system. Is there a post procesor fot this type of machines.The machines have conversational sofware which is really easy to use in 2D and five times faster than MasterCam , but 3D is very limited. I ran MusterCam v5 and v6 for few years in a different shop , but never with Hurco machines.Any info would be helpfull.Thanks in advance.

I use to run a Hurco with Mastercam for a couple of years. Mastercam does have a post for Hurco. I never had any trouble with the two working together. In fact I found it easier to program even simple parts with Mastercam.

I currently run matercam with a BMC 50 that is about 4 years old. I have no problem posting to it or running the programs, although I cannot get a good finish in 3d. The machine tends to hesitate alot leaving small nicks all over. Another thing is that I found is that the G-Code on the Hurco Machines is very limited. There are only about 10 codes the machine will handle.
