Just downloaded the Mastercam Post from one of our forum members. Now I have no idea how to add the .pst file to MAstercam.
I am running a generic 3 axis gantry router mill and have mastercam X5
any help, as always would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

I have never used Mastercam so take this with a grain of salt. On most of the cam software I have seen there is usually an option to choose the post processor file to use when your creating a new program or in the software options. Hopefully someone that has experience will give you a definitive answer.

Can't say about the newer version BUT the older versions from the main screen you went to
NC Utils
Post Proc
Change
Then select from the pop up listing.

Hi Peter,
I am having the same problems as you have had with Mastercam 5 and Mach 3. Could you please let me know where I can download the latest Post processor and whether you found it to be successful or not.
Thanks,
Stuart
