Help with Milltronics Centurion 7200 Post Processor

Hello, 

 

We use Fusion360 for CAM. We generate the toolpaths and post-process them with the Milltronics post-processor available in the Fusion360 Library. However, there are some operations missing for our G-code to function properly. 

 

After each tool change we need an M33 code to lower the cutting head again. We also need a couple of G-Codes to appear in the header and footer of the code that are also not currently appearing.

 

The correct (expected) G Code is in "Expected and Functioning G Code.nc" attached. This is a sample G Code the CNC owner sent to us that works correctly. 

 

The G Code that we are currently getting from Fusion360 is in "Fusion360gcode(not_correct).nc". 

 

The post-processor that the CNC owner uses is attached as "Centurion V ATC Arcs SNX(mm)(.nc).txt. It was originally a .pp file . 

 

The post processor for Milltronics is avialable here: https://cam.autodesk.com/posts/download.php?name=milltronics&type=post

 

There is some possibility that our CAM operations are not fully set up, too. We haven't specified G18 rotation, for example. 

 

Many thanks in advance! If needed we're happy to pay for a service.

I don't know anything about this machine/control but this will output an M33 after every linear move.

 

Does it need all those M33's or just once after a tool change?

Hello Brandon this looks great. We only need it after tool changes, though...
