Create a Post Processor for Southwestern Industries AGE 2 Milling Machine

[rtpurdy]

I was really looking forward to using Fusion 360 with this machine. This is a 2-1/2D machine, servos on the X,Y but not on the quill. 

The generic Prototrak post will not work on this machine.  It can create position code but not usable profiles.  This is true as well for the Fanuc and Hass generic posts. 

Not being an expert in creating post processors, it would seem to me that since there are already other Prototrak posts creating one for this less complex machine would not be a stretch.  Southwestern very much supports these machines so they are not going away soon.

I can create posts with BobCad without any problems on this machine.

This should probably be posted in the post processor forum, or contact your local reseller. A post should be easy to make for this machine, but can't imagine it would be very useful as a stock post :). If you create a post in the post processor forum, then upload some sample code, I'll take a look at it for you

Moving to "under review" in advance of separating out the post ideas from the general software requests. This was a batch process. So, this particular idea may still be archived.
