Thread: Okuma Lb15 post processor

Hello,

I recently bought a 1988 Okuma Lb15, It´s two axis without live tools. I cant find any good working Fusion 360 post processor, anyone got one to share for this old lathe?

Here is the post they have for download. It needs some serious work. I just program by hand and only use their post for arcs that are bit complex to program manually and I take that one piece of code from fusion and import it into the machine via RS232.

There is very little memory on my lb 15 so I doubt much cam program can be on the control.

But I don't use fusion for my okuma. iGF is so easy and very fast to make programs for me.

IGF is a build in cam program and it's very good if you learn it.

Not sure why that would be. It posts turning for me when I use it.

I have done some studding, when I´m trying to drill a hole in the end plane, it will post "G18" and "G181" I thought that meant live tooling from a internet list. On my old machine G74 should be used. This lathe are new to me and I have not learned the okuma language yet. I have made some outside and inside machining and that worked.
