Selca generic post processor.

Anonymous — Fri, 26 Feb 2016 09:37:05 GMT

We have 2 CB Ferrari with Selca 1200 NC. We have tested the generic selca post processor but have some issues; 1 The selca 1200 is modal in x, y, z moving, but not in G2 e G3 (circular). We have solved modifying the Selca post processor. Now the G2 e G3 is not modal. But we have other problems. First, converting Parallel milling and Pocket milling, in many cases the post processor gives G17, G18 and G19 lines; the G17 is not a problem; this means that the machine is working in X and Y; G18 or G19 means a changing of the working plane (and so wrong positioning in 3 axis milling that is our case). The other issue is that the post processor first gives a line with a horizontal rapid move and then a vertical rapid move. This thing is dangerous if the milling machine stops during the milling (if you miss to move manually the mill in z+ axis you can broke the mill and damage the piece). Have you any suggestion? Another question; do you have planned an italian translation of HSM in inventor? And if the answer is yes, when do you plan to release the translation?

Hello,

Regarding the G18 and G19 you have to change this in your post:

allowedCircularPlanes = undefined;

into this:

allowedCircularPlanes = 1;

Value of 1 is keeping arcs in XY plane, and arcs in XZ and YZ planes will be linearized.
Hope that helps.
