I have a seat of XR4 Lathe Express for sale.
Contact Gibbs or your reseller to buy one. No one is going to give away their expensive Willemin post.
The difference between the Centurion 7200 & Centurion 8200 is the operating system, no changes on the programming side. Your Centurion 7 posts will work identically on the Centurion 8. I have...
Post update. Post a sample program with comments enabled, mark it up what you want changed (don't edit the original code), then email it to the post department explaining what you want done. They...
G53 is the machine coordinate system, and is non-modal. Line N240 should be:
N240G53Z0
You need the axis you are going to on the same line. If you want M5M9 on the same line, that is your...
Tighten your Spline Machining Tolerance. Its in the Preferences menu on the Machining Prefs tab.
Also, if you have "Use Global Settings For Solids" enabled, you'll notice the default settings here...
Are the actual parts faceted, or just when rendering the toolpaths?
The default Spline Machining Tolerance is .001. You should change it to .0005-.0001. I leave it at .0001.
There are a lot of...
You need to purchase the Compost application from Gibbs to create or modify posts, and training at Moorpark is part of the deal.
You need your Advanced Mill post modified for the Radial Milling/4 axis option.
:D
Everything in the vnc file is saved with the file, toolpaths and all, so just upload the file used in the screenshots and I'll check out what you have going on. The file you did upload opened just...
Looking at your screenshots, you don't know how to use the software. Post your file if you want help. Also, the third screenshot is not GibbsCAM.
Is the rotary axis direction going the correct way in the rotary axis setup page?
You don't need to view geometry as wrapped to machine it in rotary mill mode. The workgroup containing the geometry must be set as Wrapped, and Polar & Cylindrical Milling must be checked in the...
You need the Polar & Cylindrical Milling (Rotary Mill) option and the rotary mill post.
The basic version of Posthaste does not support working with CS. You need to upgrade to do anything beyond 3 axis.
The basic version does support multiple work offsets, but you need to...
Go directly through the post department at Gibbs. All of my post modifications are done by them with zero problems.
Assuming you actually have rotary mill toolpaths, the posts you are trying to use are not rotary mill posts, or they were incorrectly modified. If you got these posts off the web, then more likely...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I read in your post you don't have posting issues in GibbsCAM, instead you have communication problems with Predator.
It sounds more to me like Predator is...
Is the last line and the M30 missing from the NCF file, or does it not make it to your machine controller?
What does that have to do with "downloading the associated TXT file and running it through PostHASTE" ?
You must be thinking of some other software. The PostHaste plug-in processes toolpaths, not text files, and the only text file involved on the user end would be the template. The log file could be...

That isn't correct. The pst files are not 64bit only or 32bit only. Your posts will work on either 64 or 32 bit version of Gibbs. My seat at home and work is 64bit and the second seat at work is on...
