We have a new machine in our shop. Its a Mazak VC 500-A 5 axis. It is B & C trunion style machine. Its has the new smooth control. There are a few issues that we are having with the Mazak post. I can get it to post out the program with the correct B and C moves, but it is also posting out an A value in the program. The machine will bomb out if it sees the A in the program. Any help to fix the post on that issue would be great. Also I would like to see the post match our current post that we have from surfcam(Below). We recently switched over to fusion from surfcam 18. I havnt messed with posts much so, im not exactly sure where to get started. Below is what our current post looks like from the beginning of the program.
Thanks for and and all advise!
