From the looks of it and since I'm at the office currently and cannot really spend time on it -- all the variables need to be moved to the prp, G89 - no idea, just delete it and the whole function if you don't use it.
Since it's been quite some time since I last dealt with the old SC PP format - I think that the prp had the same format as the new format meaning that simply finding the variables near the top of the new file and cut-pasting / moving these lines to the prp. If that does not help, drop me a line and I will take a look when I have the time.

Hello I look for a post pro featurecam 4 axis for mach3 !!
Help !!

[jailbreaker]

@mich68 - can't help you with that, sorry.
@rufan - Did you try it ? Any luck ?

[mich68]

Tanks !


Try(Essay) with fanuc post pro ! does not work!

Hey,

I started implementing a new version of the post, having solidcam's new kinematics (pos_to_machine=1). As a result none of the ugly math is needed anymore for 4x and 5x movements. It also has proper drill cycles, trimmed comments and so on.
I have posted the development files -- PostDevTestMachine.[vmid, gpp] on the github repo. The test machine is has the rotary axis parallel to Y. When development is done I will also make a version for X.
Obviously testing is needed and any feedback appreciated.

Cheers,

[Rufan]

Dear jailbreaker,

At the moment I use the post processor "Fanuc_2013_4x" posted on this form.
Unit now it works very well. But when I make in SC Operation Transform and generate the G-Code and open it in Mach3 it finds unknown words.
Mach3 cannot handle the While function.
Do you know a solution for this?

Jailbreak,

I already solved the problem by set loop_exist = "N" in the PRP file

[jailbreaker]

Good to know

[vakeiros]

I've been working with jailbreaker on his Post Processor and so far it's very good, I'm using it to make my latest parts and it works very well. soon as I can I'll make a 4axis index and simultaneous machining test part and make a video so you guys can see it working

Yeah ! Great, Thanks !

Hi folks, need help wit SolidCam 4 axis toolpath.
I can not do SolidCAM generate the code for the model attached, it simply ignores the part of the model in which the tool you need beyond the center in the model

[jailbreaker]

sdougm, elaborate. I don't get what your problem is.

[sdougm]

Take a look in the picture below...
Why solidcam ignore part inside of redline?

[sdougm]

Take alook in picture below

[jailbreaker]

Upload the SW file somewhere and PM me the location. I honestly have no idea what you may be doing wrong.

That's from a future version and I cannot open it on the version I have access to (2014)... I'm guessing you are on your own....
