    Mach2/3 & TurboCNC Postp's

    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,

    http://www.vectric.com/vectric/image...ostp/index.htm

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

    If you need assistance installing a postprocessor or have any associated questions, please email us at support@vectric.com

    Regards,
    Tony Mac

    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.
