General Mach Discussion / Newbie here: need adivce on postprocessors compatible with mach3
« on: December 03, 2014, 01:21:34 PM »
Hello,
i am currently working in a group project with the goal to develop a cnc cutter for carbon fibre. Unfortunately noone in our group has any experience with that.
Right now we plan to use mach3 paired with the triple beast (http://benezan-electronics.de/shop/product_info.php?cPath=8&products_id=61&language=en&osCsid=003f441d590d4e843158bf069d89ae0a). Since we want to use a rotatory blade for our cutter we need to change the g-code created out of a .cax-file in order to align the blade with the cut direction and to be able to cut corners. So we are right now looking for postprocessors which can do that and further more are compatible with the software. A postprocessor which was recommended to us is for example aspire, because it has the option to generate g-code for a drag-blade. Are there other postprocessors which have the same function and are they compatible with the software and the hardware we plan to use?
Thanks in advance for every answer.
