New postprocessors are now available for Mach2/3 & TurboCNC and they work with both the Full customer release and the Free Trial Version.

You can download the files and (very simple) installation notes from the link below,

Remember that you can actually cut the Sample designs using the Free Trial Version of VCW.

I've bought the program, and I use Mach 3, and downloaded the postprocessor, However, when I try to save multiple toolpaths, I get a message that mill program can't handle toolchanges!!! Granted I don't have a toolchanger,,,(cept me) but Mach does have an option to stop the machine for a toolchange until you hit start again,,,, Sheetcam, and Meshcam both allow this.

I had the Vectric team make a Postprocessor for the same reason. At the end of each tool it just calls up an M0 and stops, I make the changes and then hit the cycle start again. Works perfect but you must set the new "Z" before starting.
I will post it if I can. It will not let me so I would have to do it by email. Send me your email address and I can shoot it to you. Just read between the lines for my address.
Tony may get to this before you read my post though. He was very helpful with me.
