Need help to create post 5 axes

Anonymous — Wed, 25 Oct 2017 14:43:13 GMT

I need help to create a post processor, it is a 5-axis post A to B ... it's a machine without RTCP, the A-part turns around the X, the B-section turns around Y(A +-360, B+-100) !How to create a post that will be able to control rtcp to control the axis of b-rotation (0.0.228) and the length of the tool, also with the A-axis of all 360 degrees?thanks

Hi @Anonymous and thanks for posting.

The easiest way for you to get the post processor you need is to contact your local Autodesk commercial contact, as unfortunately we can't do much on here. They'll definitely be able to assist you with your request.

Best regards,
Paolo

Hi @Anonymous,

Unless some other contributor has a post processor for the machine-controller you have and is willing to share it, there isn't a way for us to create it based on the few information you provided. If you need the post to be written from scratch it won't be a 5 minutes job so, as I mentioned in my previous entry, it should be requested to your local Autodesk office.

If you need any other help please don't hesitate to contact us!

Best regards,
Paolo
