    Weiler with Sinumerik 805 and Featurecam. I need a post processor?!?!?

    Hi all,

    Looking for some info on where to get the post processor so I can run this thing from Featurecam. Already purchased Mastercam that, according to the Mastercam reps " Have issues with Siemens! "

    Siemens!!!!! FFS

    Siemens could make a few quid more if they get busy and sort this issue out.

    Since bought Featurecam and it doesnt list the 805 as a post.

    Any ideas?!!?!?!! HELP!

    805 is a very old control. However try the 840D post and see if it works.

    Thanks for that. We did suspect that this may have been compatible but didn't want to risk it.

    If all else fails, we have a gent on call that can seemingly write a post processor in 30 minutes that will suit the machine.

    Thanks again for your input. Much appreciated,

    Kev
