Generic NC Post Processors usually come with cad/cam systems.
The Problems:
- Scrapped Parts
Unfortunately, these NC Post Processors are of a generic form and do not take into account the differences between different makes and models of CNC
controls.Generic NC Post processors will output the same M&G codes, machine feeds and speeds.
- Non-Portable NC Code
Even the same CNC control make and model could have been installed with different M and G code processing, making it impossible to move part programs
between controls without manually editing the program or risking scrapping parts.
- Manually Editing Of NC Code
Even when the CNC controls are configured to accept the same data, spindle speeds and machine feedrates can vary from machine to machine,
which means the part program must be manually edited.
Customized post processors eliminate these issues by sending the correct codes to the correct control.
They also eliminate the end of manually editing manually editing M/G codes, feeds and speeds because the post processor is configured to output the correct data for the selected machine tool/control combination.
