Hi there-

Can anyone recommend a post processor file for use with the tormach?

Thanks!
Matt

Have you checked with Mastercam to see if they already have one yet?

Mike

Matt,

See this thread on one of the Mach forums:

Someone there has a MasterCAM post, though it is probably for Mach3.

Hi Matt
This is my first post so please bare with me! I am using Mastercam X to program for the Tormach. I use the generic FANUC 3X MILL that comes with Mastercam. It works well however I have to manually edit the H code offset and enter the tool number. I suspect this small problem is due to an operator malfunction rather than a post error. Hope this helps.

You can make the post file put the H tool number in by putting the number in the tool selection parameters window. Make sure the head number (#0) is the same for all tools.

Tormach has posted a MCX 10 post for Mach3 from a generic Fanuc 3-axis mill. I can't get it to write a post file.

Has anyone run into the same problem?

There is a MasteCam X post for download on the Tormach website, I had to just cut and past the text to notepad.
