    Angled head

    Hi All
    This is my first post on here and i hope i can get some positive feedback.
    I am looking for any info on how edgecam handles angled heads, and how the post processor interprets the plane, i have seen an ims post for angled heads but not on edgecam.
    Any info would be greatly received

    Thanks in advance

    Alex

    It would be possible to write a post-processor customized to your needs to support a right angle head attachment. I believe any angle in between 0 and 90 would depend on your machine control's ability to rotate the coordinate system. Your best option would be to call your local EdgeCAM reseller to discuss your applications.
