5 axis post

[Kerry]

is there a 5 axis post included with mastercam?

my company has 8.1 i think

anyways when i got some free time i wanna try to see if i can do 5 axis..or how it works..

i think i nead a post to play with it? for tyhe params and stuff?

so i'm not really concerned what machine it's for

but rather that it's already setup for it..

otherthans perhaps changing the controle axis..i think..lol

 

thanks for any info

There is NOT a 5 axis post included with V8. It is with V9.

 

You only need the post if you want to see code. The software will show all the motion and generate all the toolpaths just not post.
