Thank you Chris! For the condolences and the reply.
I didn't see a forum for part maker, only FeatureCam and PowerMill. I suppose I could cross post this if that would help.
My only thought with switching from the Partmaker software into something more fitting (If there is) is that the large majority of the programs he produced he ended up hand editing outside the CAM software. So were not in a good spot to repost the code form those anyways. In addition, they spent weeks proving out programs on our Okuma mill-turn because there are no simulation files and they would post out the program and then hand edit the code that was needed at the machine. I don't want to continue this going forward. We will always have PartMaker and FeatureCam to support those files if needed, But to me, it appears PowerMill is a better and more robust software to use for these machines going forward. That being said I am unfamiliar with each of these and just going by the information I can find on the web. I have reached out to a few people at Autodesk that we have been in contact with in the past and haven't received any response from them. Possibly no longer employed with them...
The posts have seemed to be fairly easy to acquire from Autodesk and get modified to work with our specific machines. I will reach out to the reseller and see if they can support for the simulation files as I have not found any .MCH file included in the download.
If you were just getting started, would PowerMill be your software of choice?
