  1. So I was only partially correct. It now outputs a G43 and G143 correctly when it is an "A" or "B" or both move but it does not put it on the correct line.
  2. Thanks for the reply. It is now working. It was only giving a G143 on the B axis. I chnaged the line if mill5$ | fmtrnd(s_abs) <> 0, op_5axis = 1 | fmtrnd(p_abs) <> 0, op_5axis = 1. fmtrnd(s_abs) was the A axis and fmtrnd(p_abs) is the B axis on our post.
  3. This is the section that outputs a G143. I tried to make it read fmtrnd(s_abs and/or p_abs) but it did not work correctly. pCheck5axis # set flag for 5 axis toolpath if mill5$ | fmtrnd(s_abs) <> 0, op_5axis = 1 else, op_5axis = 0
  4. I am waiting to hear back from inhouse.
  5. Ok so im looking at these files. You say all that needs to be changed is the .pst file?
  6. If this already is in exanstance we would gladly pay for it especially if it works. I would love to edit them and work with them myself but we have 3 Mastercam programmers in house that need good posts. Our other programmers use NCL and postworks.
  7. I am the general how can I help the shop make money guy. We have an okuma millac 1000vh that we have been having problems getting mastercam to post out right. We had a guy that worked for us trying to get it correct but he no longer works for us. We went to our Mastercam dealer and they could not get a post to work on our Cincinnatti T35 so we are not asking them for help on this. I have filled out a request through this site for a post. However my question is do we need to have a post created at all? I see all kinds of things about mastercam can be configured with the base posts to do anything, I see you cant do anything and need an unlocked mastercam post to edit. So these are some of the problems we are fighting; 5 axis rotary motion not oreninting correct, 0 Can 3 axis cycle works not G19 correctly Tilt plane shifting does not work Rotary curvic for position does not lock head and table (m10,M12) G43.1 does not come in at right location in program What is the best direction to go from here? (Fanuc 30i, 5 axis bridge, 4 ax on head, 5 axis rotary table.)
