Hello.

since 3 weeks I would make parts on a 4-Axis machine. Now I think my problems comes from a postprocessor that not works to my Software (Beamicon2)

I had search a folder with all my madCam5 PP´s and there I create a new textfile and inserted a PP that works with my Software and Vectric Cad/Cam programs.

If I will postprocessing my toolpathes in Madcam I cannot select my own PP- It isnt in the List- Why????



All existing PP´s in the folder are not correct

Here Is a Paste of this PP

Hello,

Are you trying to use a post processor from another software in madCAM?
If so, that isn't possible. You have to use a madCAM post processor for madCAM.

Hello Joakim,

Yes I had try this.
Now I think I use the ISO G-Code 4-Axis MadCAM PP
I had modify it at it works.

My simulation looks confusing but in reality it has worked at the first test this night.
