Mastercam has avery nice Heidy post. The best way to get it is to ask your reseller to download it for you
I am looking for a postprocessor for a Heidenhain 422 control for Mastercam X. I’m not particular on whether it’s an ISO or conversational post. Currently I’m using the Generic heidenhain TNC_530 3X Mill (conversational) post that I found on line but was wondering if there is one that is more suited for this control.
Also, for the CUSTOMIZABLE MILL SETUP SHEET. Is there one out there that if I set up my operations by toolpath groups that would create the sheet so that it would print off the group names.
EG,
Toolpath Name - Tool Number – Dia. – Length – Max depth – Description
A1 0 .500 1.5 0.1 .500 spotdrill
Sorry I can't get the spacing to work out correctly
The sheet that comes with the 530 post is close to what I want but wants to organize everything by tool #’s. The shop I work at, everything is one off die work so we don’t use the tool changer very often and the program name is the more important thing and all programs are done to a single tool #.
Hopefully I made this clear enough and if there are any questions please let me know.
Thanks for your time.

All the post processors are on the install disk if I am not mistaken.
Reseller...Yes they are the best people to contact first.
