    Post Processor for Makino pro 5 control

    Can anyone help me with a Smartcam post processor for a Makino pro 5 control 4 axis?

    I may be able to help. It has been a very long time since I worked on SC Post Processors. If I remember correctly, SC does basic 2.5D only. My guess is that you will have to hand edit the files for full 4 axis machining. What I would need is some sample code to help in working on the post. I will give it a try.

    I was hoping that I could find someone that already had a gererator that they were using. I am currently trying to make my own. I really need to figure this out anyway. If I need help I might half to ask some questions. Thanks anyway.
