Post processor for Laguna Plasma CNC

Anonymous

How could I go about creating a post processor for a CNC plasma not listed within Autodesk's library? Here are some specs I received from Laguna and a sample g code is attached.

 

Thanks

Luke

I'm in the same boat. Did you ever get a post figured out?

I found a Torchmate post that was very similar to what is needed for the Laguna Plasma table and modified it to work for the Laguna. Hopefully this helps anyone looking for a post for the Laguna Plasma cutters. Attached is the post file and the following sample program.
