Hi Guys,
I'm working on a new post processor for an older (1991-92) Fadal 4020 5 axis VMC for some new CAM software. I was hoping that somebody could post a couple of snippets of code or short sample programs for me to examine and reference. I am new to Fadal but old to CNC and I would have to say the Fadal behaves a little differently that many other machines I've worked with in the past.
We are working in format 1. Right now I'm only concerned with getting a streamlined post for three axis work.
So here is what I am looking for specifically,
Preparatory start and safety lines
Tool changes
End of Program
Fixture offset calls
A/B Head rotations.
Thanks in advance
