Hi,
I am evaluation weather or not to purchase fusion 360. I would like to know if there are post processors available for an ABB6400R robotic arm to do machining. Is there a continuous 5 axis machining option?
Thanks,
Joseph
I haven't seen a post for ABB, though there is one for KUKA KRL, and we've also used a custom post in concert with Grasshopper & KUKA|prc to program incremental sheet forming for our KR60 & KR150 using Fusion toolpaths.
It wouldn't be too hard to create a post that describes the tool planes for milling, but the broader issue is that Fusion has no features that let you simulate or control the pose. I suggest checking out Powermill Robot, it's pretty robust and I found the 2018 interface way nicer than previous versions too.
Update! We now have a post-processor to drive ABB Robots from Fusion 360. Find it here: https://cam.autodesk.com/hsmposts?p=abb&_ga=2.20262328.124841764.1593537081-1682455771.1592242493
This does support 5-axis milling applications.
