Im new to 4-axis machining... 3-axis I'm comfortable with, but I'm having some trouble getting going with 4-axis.
I'm using Solidcam 2010 & Mach3.

Many videos on youtube show them picking a 4-axis post processor when loading the model... but my only options are:
AWEA1000-FANUC
FANUC
Fanuc5a
Nakamora-mt
table-table-exercise


How do I go about proper 4-axis milling?

hi
you must edit your default Gpp for 4axis
if you want i can send standard 4 axis post for fanuc with 0to-360 and 0to360

Any Fanuc code will work with Mach3 it just depends what machine the Post Processor was used for, there may be some editing to do of the code, so just try each Post Processor you have to see which works the best for your machine, the code is just Text so you can do whatever you want with it, you can edit it in Note pad and save it as Text and send it or load it into Mach3

Hi Mhook, yes please I would like to try that.
Thanks
