Thank you guys for working on this.

@JackalMFG  Now I need you to be awesome and test it for us.

[JackalMFG]

Absolutely @al.whatmough, I have another Okuma machinist I will get to test also! Thank you guys for working on this!

I am trying the post on a Okuma Cadet CNC Lathe (OSP5020L Controller) and a Okuma Crown (OSP700L Controller) .

I am wondering ..."Anyway to trim the Lead Zeros on the X, Z, F, etc.?"

See below code in "red".

@Robert_Allport, that is possible of course. We can add a property for this later. Right now we are more looking for feedback if this post runs machines without any issues, all "cosmetic" changes can be done afterwards 😉

AchimN,

     Here is a little feed back on the Okuma Post:

The Post Needs to output a "%" sign for Start and End of NC Code. That didnt seem to be happening

in the Test (Okuma Generic) post.

Also;

       The post was outputting to "Slow" of an Spindle RPM for the controller. On our machine 50

rpm is the slowest acceptable rpm or the machine will not move. When I edited the NC file and changed the S6 to S50

the machine accepted it and proceeded with the next code. The part was programmed in CSS. See Below:

N20 T010101 (0. GENERAL TURNING)
M8
G95
G50 S1200
G96 S6 M3 M41                      >>>>>>>   "S6" RPM to Slow For Controller. Should be Min of 50 rpm
G0 X3.4 Z.1969
G0 Z.0104
G1 X3.1131 F.03937

@Robert_Allport, thanks for your feedback!

The updated post will show up into the library soon.

Changes:

- added "%" at the beginning and end of the program

Regarding the RPM issue:

The post is just using the values you defined into the operation.

Of course i could generate a warning / error if the rpm is above/below any value, but this can be different from machine to machine.

So the easiest way is to take care of this by programming the operations.

[Robert_Allport]

AchimN,

            I believe that I did set the rpm correctly (See Picture Below).  However I do agree with you that it may be different from machine to machine. So perhaps the best way (?) to handle that would be to add a "line" (MinimumSpindleSpeed) to the "User Defined Properties" list under the "MaximumSpindleSpeed"  so that value could be entered and stored and used in the JS code . 

           

[AchimN]

@Robert_Allport you are absolutely right, there was an issue regarding this (unit issue).

Updated post will be online soon.

Thank you so much for your feedback!

[AchimN]

This post processor is public now.

[tommyKS2VG]

yea, i am looking for the post processor for OKUMA OSP700L too

i need help. 

[rich.hedge]

I need a post for the OKUMA   OSP-P300LA-e.  Does anyone know where I can get one?

Are there vendors who build custom posts?

[Robert_Allport]

I have one for a OSP502L and OSP700L. I dont know if they will work, would you like to try it.

[scottmoyse]

Hi Rich,

We can help you get one sorted if you don't find one from the community.
