Title: post prosesador for router of 4 axes with axis z rotary
Post by: juki77 on February 20, 2019, 02:34:12 PM

hello friends of the forum, I have a cnc that I am manufacturing of 4 axes, and has the rotating z-axis with 180 degree turn.
I wanted to know if I can advise any cam or post prosesador program to use this axis, I use the artcam but I have not managed to make it work, since in artcam I replace the x axis with the A, but it is not what I need.
thanks so much

In most cases CAM programs work to a standard that makes X,Y,Z linier and A,B & C rotary so your 4th axis must be A,B or C
