Title: Prefix in edgecam
Post by: ant771 on August 06, 2007, 03:36:25 PM
Hi. I have converted to ISO-code some pictures from Edgecam and Mach3 did open those quite well. I'm using some fanuc "machines prefix" (in Edgecam this is called Machine Sequence Tool) what I found in Edgecam directory. File extension for the prefix file what I mean is .MCP

What prefix for mach3 you guys use?

Is there some custom prefix-file for Mach3?

Mach3 uses .TAP extensions.

Yes, but I'm looking the Machine Sequence -file for Edgecam. So do someone got that file, or should I use some file for fanuc-control, some is really close to Mach3?

Is some fanuc-control working exactly same, like Mach3?

Use a Fanuc 6 post, it is very close to mach3.
