Need Acu-rite Millpower Post Processor

[Mr.Evenflo]

Hello


We recently purchased the manufacturing add-on for Pro-E/wildfire 3 and have hit a wall with getting one of the stock G-Post processors to work with our Acu-rite Millpower controller. We are trying to use the stock UNCX01.P14 (Fadal VMC 15-CNC 32MP). We discovered after sending the code to the Acu-rite software engineers that the I and J values were missing from some ofthe G2-G3 arc movements. They said the post you are trying to use must assume that the controller will hold the last modal I and J from the last arcand carry the values over to thefollowing arcs. They stated that the Millpower controller will not hold previous I and J for following arcs and that we must SPECIFY on every G2 G3 arc. Can someone assist us in adding this using the G-Post processor modification program in wildfire 3/manufacturing? Any help would be FANTASTIC!!!!


Thanks guys!!!!

Thanks Tsl,





I'll try and modify them in the program, if I run into any problems I'll let you know. I thought it might be something simple like this, I just didn't know where to look. Beats paying PTC more money for a "custom" post like they want us to do.


Thanks for your help!!!

Mr Evenflo,


If you will open the opt file generator, go to the advanced tab at the


bottom, then pick plable, then pick 81-90, then look at 88 this should solve your


problem
