Hello,
We have an auerbach milling machine with has a rotating spindle around Y axis.
It uses heidenhain TNC 426/430M.
The situation is that my coleagues bought the machine without a post. They found one that worked, just without the 4th axis. I'm new in this company and decided to try to make it work.
So i found the info about activating the 4th axis in the post processor, found a post that works for our machine.
The contoller uses cycle 19 for rotating planes. I have achieved that we can drill simple wholes with angles without changing tools by hand, but we still can't wrap faces.
This is the post processor that looks closest to working:

One small problem that I can't understand is that when I make the g code it stops on the first line and says "feed rate missing".
This is the begining of the code:
0 BEGIN PGM 1001 MM
1 BLK FORM 0.1 Z X-56 Y-51 Z-102.401
2 BLK FORM 0.2 X+56 Y+51 Z+0
