Digging into the UPG to write Post Processors with CAMWorks
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 лип 2024
- Webinar Wednesday 08/09/2017 - Post processing is a critical part of any CAM system, and one that many CAM users don’t know how to manipulate effectively. Join our CAMWorks Technical Expert, Daniel Lyon, for an in-depth look at how you can customize your post processor to optimize machining performance and prevent costly mistakes and rework. You will learn how to create your own CAMWorks post processor using the Universal Post Generator and EC Editor and witness how the different post files interact with each other. Sign up for the webinar to dive under-the-covers of CAMWorks Post-processing and take control of your machining.

This is exactly what you are looking for. Thank you
Great information. I’m newbie to CNC\CAM. I’ve been working as manual machinist for some years now. You explain and show the critical information clearly with bullet points and no technical Jargon technical. Thank you so much for sharing this valuable information! #kelwinkwel
Спасибо! Информация оказалась очень полезной для меня.
It was very good. thank you.
Thank you for the instructional video. Have you made a video detailing the Kinematics portion?
I have not found any information on the settings for the CAMWorks 5 Axis Simultaneous Parameters.
I was able to set up the Spindle Direction and the Z Base Points to match my trunnion offset and 3+2 Axis works beautiful.
But I can not post G Code for any multi surface moves, it post all 3+2 moves and skips the multi surface.
Very informative video! Does Camworks still publish the Post Writers Reference manual? The one I have is very outdated but I haven't seen one one in a long time.
Hi.
we have a new machine, a Chevalier 2040L , and i need make the post processor, i checked the manual and it says that the controller is similar to a Fanuc 0M, and i i just have to chance G20 or G21 for G70 or G20, but the problem is when i use the example of the fanuc 0m in the UPG, i can't find where i can change G20 for G70, can you help me with that?
Hi Daniel, Can I use for cut a full circle the I, J, K addresses and for cut other degree circle the R address in the same postprocessor?? for have a Post as this example:
(BEGIN CUTTING BLOCKS) ;
G00 Z-1. (Rapids to Z-1.) ;
G01 G41 D01 X-0.5 Y1.4 F20. (Linear move) ;
(Cutter comp on) ;
G03 X0 Y0.962 R0.5 F25. (Arc into thread) ;
G02 J-0.962 Z-1.0625 (Cut threads while lowering Z) ;
G03 X0.5 Y1.4 R0.5 (Arc out of thread) ;
G01 G40 X0 Y2.4 F20. (Linear move)
what is the programming language of camworks post processor ?
it is javascript for Fusion CAM, Inventor HSM and HSMWorks
Hello, how to modify the post processor in order to have T1.1 and not T0101 ? thanks
know how to insert a new machine? in the Help menu, there is a tutorial to generate with .Bat, but I couldn't
hello, excelevideo, I am looking for a FANUC driver for Fusion360 or Alphacam, I have problems with a Router Anderson Selexx 510 FL
in my compile file, the archive .ctl was not created, you now why?
hi . ive got file of post prosessor generic, for my machine from my reseller , how i can add to come works
I get an asterisk before certain line numbers, like
N0041 (3/8 EM CRB 2FL 1 LOC)
N0051 G28 G91 Z0
N0061 G90 T07 M06
N0071T102
*N0081 G17 G55 X1.45 Y.825 M03 S18000
N0091 G43 H07 Z.75
*N0101 Z.6
N0111 G01 Z.25 F100.
What does that mean, and how do I get rid of it?
Thanks!
Edit: I also have an issue where my machine wants tool numbers in the form of 20xx, so tool 7 would be T2007, but it wants H and D codes to be just the tool number, so H07/D07, and if i set the tool number in my TechDB to 2007, and then the compensation value in the post to -2000, I get T2007, D07, but still get H2007. How can I get around this?
Hi, My name is David, I’m from Venezuela, and I am learning on this UPG-2 and EC Edit-2 by myself. It’s not easy and I have very queries.
Do you can help me with this?
My Question is the follows:
- Is It possible activated the parameter “Sub. Peck amt” in Tap Hole? The Drill operation if it have this Parameters.
Hi. Please tell me how can I edit this out?
G02X5.095Y-0.815R1.5
X4.518Y-1.792R1.5 Wrong. Error.
G02X5.095Y-0.815R1.5
G02X4.518Y-1.792R1.5 Correctly. No mistake.
G02 G03 commands must be written in each frame. I don't know how to do that.
In Radius Move mark G02 non modal - . In case of non modal comand just add "!" sign to it.
@@alexeybalagurov2838 Thank!
I have been trying to get a multiaxis toolpath to generate in CamWorks and find the following:
All of the .SRC files that are in the UPG MillSourceTemplates do NOT post code for Multi Axis, I get all of the code except that toolpath, if I try and only post the Multi Axis I get just the header and M30 ending.
If I use the M5AxisTutorial.ctl in CamWorks, it posts all the Multi Axis G Code fine, However the POST is not right for my machine.
Finally if I try to open the UPG Tutorial Source Files, NONE of them will open in UPG, they ALL say "Source file was not created by UPG or wrong format, Please select another source file."
Does anyone know where to get a working 5 axis source file?
In your src file use ec editor to add *Fanucm (*Fanuct if lathe, *fanucmt if millturn) in the very first line. Then edit the library paths to your .lib and mill.lib (latter in the masterlibrary folder). Now open the file with your upg.
@@impactodelsurenterprise2440 Thank you for your suggestion, I will try it out. 😄
I wouldn't suggest editing in upg even if u got it open I tried and it wouldn't compile. It also rearranges all the lines and wouldn't compile. Only use it for compiling.
Hi anyone here ie is done post prosessor for hiedenhain tnc530 control please
