post for Mori Seiki SL150 (turn/Mill)

[Jotry]

Hi


Does anyone ever worked with this machine before it is a horizontal turn mill machine (XZC Axis)


I don't seem to be able to work the post of pro engineer on this machine.

Jotry,


If you can provide me with some information I may be able to help.


What does the machine have beyond one spindle, one turret with live tooling that moves in tne Z-X plane.


Please keep in mind that GPOST can only process what is in the CL file.

We have found that a lot of people struggle with Pro/E because Pro/E and G-Post don't commincate well. We've been using PosteHaste from http://www.postprocessor.com (Ground Support) with much better success. We run it on Linux, but it should run on lesser operation systems like Microsoft Windows just fine. We have some sophisticated DMG bar-feed multi-axis milling machines. One thing that is nice about PosteHaste is that we can understand the post-processor quite easily and make changes quickly.

damormino,


Pro/E and GPOST communicate extremely well!!!


The problem I find is getting Pro/E to put the proper information in the .NCL


file. I have created a back spotface canned cycle in GPOST that does many tape blocks, the problem is getting Pro/E to write the CL record.


If you can write a cl record with a purpose in mind I can "post" the record and make tape output that you require, NO exceptions!

Hi Don,

Could you please let me know your e-mail so that i could e-mail you some files that i have done on this post processor. I will also e-mail you some parts of the machine guide.

I have tried to change it through GPOST but cannot seem to be able to get it right to fit the requirement of the machine. Thank you.
