FeatureCam Post Question

cnc wizard · Feb 23, 2006

Anyone have a FeatureCam milling post that outputs an "R" value for the arc but outputs I,J,K values if the arc is 360 degrees? If so, post that section of the post-processor so I can see what I need to make my post look like.

Thanks in advance.

Can you send me the post file you are using, I can help you modify it. I am not exactly sure what you want to do, but just replace R with i j k if arc angle is greater than 360?

What I need to do is...
I want to stay with posting an "R" value. But as you know "R" value's wont work when you're cutting a full circle. Therefore I need an <IF> statement to test for a full 360 degree arc. If the arc is 360 degree I need to switch from an "R" vale to outputting I,J,K values.
I'm o.k. with editing post. I was just lazy and looking for one to copy.

hehe, ok. I don't have anything like that. Editing their posts are kind of a PITA.
