Creating or obtaining a post processor for your HAAS VM3 with NGC control is a common need in the CNC machining industry. A post processor is a software tool that converts the toolpath information generated by CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) software into G-code that is compatible with a specific CNC machine's controller.

Here are some steps you can take to obtain a suitable 3-axis post processor for your HAAS VM3 with NGC control:

1. **Manufacturer's Resources:**
- Visit the official HAAS Automation website or contact their support. Manufacturers often provide post processors for popular CAM software. Check if they offer a post processor for your specific CAM system and machine combination.

2. **CAM Software Provider:**
- Contact the customer support or check the documentation of your CAM software. CAM software providers usually have a library of post processors for various CNC machines. Ensure that you select the one compatible with HAAS VM3 and NGC control.

3. **CAM Forums and Communities:**
- Check online forums and communities related to your CAM software and HAAS machines. Often, community members share post processors, and you might find one that suits your needs. Popular forums include CNCzone, Practical Machinist, or forums specific to your CAM software.

4. **CAM Software Updates:**
- Ensure that your CAM software is up to date. Sometimes, post processors are updated or added in newer versions of the software.

5. **Customization:**
- If you cannot find a pre-built post processor, you may need to consider customization. Many CAM software packages allow users to modify or create their own post processors. Refer to the CAM software documentation for guidance on customization.

6. **Professional Services:**
- Consider reaching out to professional services or consultants who specialize in CNC machining. They might be able to create a custom post processor tailored to your HAAS VM3 with NGC control.

When obtaining a post processor, make sure it's designed for your specific machine model and control system, as inaccuracies can lead to errors in the machining process. Always test the post processor with simple programs to verify its accuracy and reliability before using it for critical jobs.
