Fusion 360 has an "open" post processor. What I mean by that is that nearly anything is possible with the post processor and so nearly any machine can be controlled.

Not all machines or controls have a post processors made already but they can be made by yourself or you local re-seller.

Have a read here on how you could edit your post processor: https://camforum.autodesk.com/index.php?topic=8286.0

Hello, 

I realize this post is a few months old, but I was curious if you found a post processor for the cincinnnati  2100 controls.   I have a Cincinnati Arrow 2100 machine and am curious if Fusion 360 will communicate with it.    

Thank you for your time,

Jeff

Hi Jeff, 

No i wasn't able to find a post for those machines. i ended up liquidating the machines and buying newer Fanuc control machines which are much better. 

I just stripped a falcon 200 and an arrow 750 if you need parts let me know. 

Best of luck.

Hi all

We have a Cincinatti Milacron Hawk 150 with the Siemens A2100 and have the same problems, because Fusion 360 not support it. So we will be happy if someone have the right post processor setup to.

Best Regards.

I own a Sabre 750 with Acramatic 2100 control. I give up Camworks because i find easy to use Cam in Fusion360. After i learn enough i found that A2100 cannot use generated code. As they said. Is a general post. Too bad. I think now i have to step back.

I tested and post is working. I'm sorry for previous post. 

I think the problew was with G98. It has to be alone in the line. 

After i edited post it worked like a charm. Thanks
