posthaste

[WRD]

Hello,

I am looking into the program "PostHaste" for use with MX3 and Mazak mill/turns. Does any one here have any experiance with this program. It looks pretty good, and the price is right.

 

Thanks

A former employer bought it and had good results

with MC, UG and even smartcam.

That was several yrs back when the company was

just starting out.

 

 

PEACE

I played with it for a short while for Gibb'scam (did I spell that correctly?). I had moderate success but my workload severely increased at that time along with the prototypers going to two shifts and so I haven't gotten back to it.

I thought it was only for Gibbs. Does Posthaste work with other systems as well?

The guy that owns and writes posthast is a long time friend. He will make his software work with all Cam systems.

the one that come with gibbs is a light version.

I have played with it in the past and it is a nice system. His Name is Paul Andrews

Paul provided posts for our mill-turn and 5axis machines. We use the same post template for Proe and Catia. We have different executable file for different software. I have been doing business with him for almost 10 years now.

Paul Andrews does great work.

Surfcam uses his posthaste exclusively also.

Paul is great great guy, been 6 years since I've had contact with him. Always did me and the company I worked for right!

Alright, I'm looking to get a 5 axis, 3+2, post for X3. I started with my dealer, but after some research. I found ICAM and PostHASTE. I have submitted information to all three to see what they comeback with. All sound very competent.

 

If you all would be so kind. What are the pros and cons on running a MC post verses a third party post like PostHASTE? Our dealer only writes up t 4 axis, so it will be created by a by someone outside their company. Maybe some of you running PostHASTE can expand on your experience.

Bump??

PostHast runs out side you post NCI and then run this thru posthast to create the code.

 

Paul has been doing this for along time and for many Cadcam systems.

 

Your dealer will get it done but sounds like they will source it to one of the other dealers for help.But you will get a internal working post for most likely less money.

 

the New option for Icam is nice as it will be built to support your machine and have the option for Michine Simulation and tool checking.

 

I have played with all the options in my years.
