Prototrak turn/lathe Post processor

Prototrak turn/lathe Post processor

   I think it would be nice if you guys could offer a post processor for the prototrak lathe. After some fumbling around this weekend I was able to "piece" together a program good enough to run but a more streamline process would be ideal.

 

  The prototrak lathe will not convert an "R" value for G2 or G3 so It will have to post process with I/K arc centers or point to point moves like the " heidenhain turning" post processor. This shouldn't be very hard to make and I would be willing to ever offer my time and machine up for Beta testing purposes.

Have you asked for any help on the CAM forum? Follow the suggestions in this thread and make a new thread with as much info as possible, I think modifying the the Fanuc or Hass turning post would be the best place to start. For IJ output we'll need to know if they're incremental or absolute also if they're diameter or radius.
