Inventor CAM HSM Pro Post Processor

[npolak]

Hello,

I have a fagor controlled summit 3 axis mills.  We are using Inventor HSM Pro in our school to create the CAM cycle or G-Gode if you will to mill.

After contacting Fagor with issues we were having with the machine not being able to run the code that the Inventor CAM Post Processor was creating, they said that the Fagor post process in Inventor was "generic" and that we needed a more specific post process.  They said to contact you to have this created and sent me a sample program to share with you to use to model the post processor.

I have attached the sample program.

Can a post process more specific for fagor be created so we can run our part programs on our summit mills?

Thank You

Does the generic Fagor post processor not work?

What does it error on?

It errors when it gets to the first move in either the x or y axis. One
thing fagor told me is that there shouldn't be G18's in the program because
it is all on one plane, but after removing those there are still issues. I
was on the phone with 2 people from fagor for 2 hours working through
things, and after the G18 attempt, their recommendation was to have
autodesk create a post process specific like the sample they sent me and
that the one in inventor was to generic.
