DMG CTX beta 800 MillTurn post processor help

[mooooka]

Hello.

I work on a similar machine DMG CTX beta 1250 TC 4A .I'm trying to use this post processor.

But I'm getting an error.Can somebody help me.

[mooooka]

I'm sorry.This is a error.

My machine has a B axis.

Well I think your B-axis is the problem. 

The post only seems set-up for Live tooling and Y-axis. Not the B-axis. 

In the post the B-axis is defined as the linear movement for the Sub Spindle.

But you have the DMG CTX beta 1250 TC which has the rotary B-axis milling head.

Pretty tricky to add all that logic in there.

So the Siemens Mill-turn post might be a better starting point: https://cam.autodesk.com/hsmposts?p=siemens_mill-turn

With this setting:

var gotBAxis = false; // B-axis always requires customization to match the machine specific functions for doing rotations

Changed to 

var gotBAxis = true; // B-axis always requires customization to match the machine specific functions for doing rotations

Merry Christmas to all.

Ok, obviously this postprocessor is for machines with Turret.

I tried this postprocessor does not work correctly.

 https://cam.autodesk.com/hsmposts?p=siemens_mill-turn 

var gotBAxis = false; // B-axis always requires customization to match the machine specific functions for doing rotations

Changed to 

var gotBAxis = true; // B-axis always requires customization to match the machine specific functions for doing ro

I made this adjustment.

I think I know what's wrong.

I'm on vacation now and can't try anything. After I go back to work I'll write what's wrong.

Thanks for the help Laurens.

Excuse me for my English.

Hi Guys

Just passing though and I noticed this thread.

Did you ever get a working post for this machine (DMG MORI CTX 1250)

@mooooka @Laurens-3DTechDraw ?

[mooooka]

Unfortunately not. It doesn't work correctly. I even tried this post processor.

Look at MESSAGE 4 from this thread.
