3 plus 2 post

[PeterM]

I am tired of my clunky old horizontal post which seems to be less and less functional as I upgrade to newer versions of Mastercam. I want a recommendation as to which generic post to start with for use on a Fanuc horizontal with a Haas indexer mounted to the B axis.

Thanks.

No such beast as a 3+2 post......anything like that would need all the 5 axis logic

 

I think a table/table could get you there but you're going to have to align in the base machine settings in the post

Shoot, I was hoping for something a little closer than that. I can't believe that my Horizontal configuration is all that unusual. My experience so far with a 5 axis post is with a Haas TR post which I discovered only gives good code when programmed at COR. This approach would be impractical on our horizontals with the type of work that we do. Thanks for the suggestion though.
