  1. Hi, new to the forum, and pretty new to modifying the post. I've only helped my supervisor at previous company modify a post. First thing first, I've already backed up my current post. I'm want to modify the post for my MasterCAM Mill 2017. I am using a CNT Motion Router using WinCNC for conrtol at the machine. I have 2 issues to solve regarding this issue: 1. The WinCNC software does not read a typical D## after it reads a G41/G42 for offset. The tool comp size is automatically read when the tool is loaded. I cannot have any D## callouts in my program because it is not supported by WinCNC. (there is only 1 comp. size available for each tool) Can someone give insight on how to remove this from my post? 2. I also need to have my G40/G41/G42 on their own line in my program. How can I accomplish this? I've made all these changes to the program by hand and confirmed they work. I just need mastercam to post the automatically. Here is an example of what my post creates now: [1/8" SINGLE FLUTED SPIRAL END MILL] M5 T2 M3 G0 X7.749 Y11.3001 S17500 G0 Z.5 G1 Z.1225 F100. G1 X7.762 G1 G42 D2 X7.775 G3 X7.723 Y11.3001 I-.026 J0.

  2. Does anyone know how to change the post to output the cutter compensation to come on right after the G00 rapid command. Currently my post outputs it on the next line with the G01. Here is a sample code of what it looks like: N100 T0101 ( OD 55 DEG TNMG ) G99 G50 S2000 G96 S360 M03 G0 X.6 Z.087 M8 G0 X.5 Z.037 G71 U.1 R.02 G71 P102 Q104 U.01 W.004 F.01 N102 G0 X.245 S360 G1 G42 Z-.428 <-------- I need the G42 to be moved up to the line above in front of G0 ---=== X.2895 X.3095 Z-.438 Z-1.803 X.41 X.43 Z-1.813 Z-2.257 X.5 N104 G40 M9 G0 X8.

Z.1 G30 U0 M05 M01 I would like to know how to find inside post processor and move it around.. This is for a Doosan Puma 280lm & using a fanuc 4x lathe post processor. Thanks.
  3. So we inherited a few Mazak Variaxis 630-5X's and we cannot figure out how to use the the cutter comp commands in them.(G42,G43,G41) Do they read the commands? I would assume so. We got a bunch of programs in the controller's as well and it looks like whoever was doing the programming before never used them once. Any help?
