Title: Post processors for Mastercam 8.1 [Print This Page] Author: Lindo Time: 2019-1-2 14:23 Title: Post processors for Mastercam 8.1 I am currently using Mastercam v 8.1 to develop NC codes.
The program contains up to 50 different .pst to choose from.
Narrowed down to 5 .pst´s. for suitability.
My question is in the NC files produced i have a G43 H and Z values.
G 43 is tool length compensation and H tells which length offset to use.
and typically is the same as the Tool number. IE T1 H1
Is there another .pst that is compatible with DDCSv2.1 and Mastercam v 8.1 I can use
to avoid the G43 statement.
Thanks
John

Hi, Lindo! If your parameters from #267 to #282 are zero, then G43 will not affect the processing, and you can use this postprocessor.Author: Lindo Time: 2019-1-3 14:19
Thanks I will see what happens and let you know.
