Title: Hey! First Post! got a question about posting G-code (Mastercam to Mach3)
Post by: Homebrew_KJ-66_turbo on December 17, 2010, 05:05:21 AM

so I'll be using a Wabeco/MDA Precision 3 axis cnc mill w/ MDA Precision trunnion table.( i think its 12000E model, has smooth stepper usb and 7500 rpm spindle)

I wanna use Mastercam to create the code and I will load and run it in Mach3.

Does anyone have the machine definition (.mmd?), control file (.control), and post processor (.pst) files should I use?

Also, how do I load these files into Mastercam?

Thanks for the help,
Mike
