Which CAM software simulation is tied directly to the post? I would say that was more the point of this question that originated this post.
If your softwares machine simulation isn't based on the g code from the post, what is the best way to verify. Last edited: Friday at PM. Joined Feb 12, Location UT. One thing a lot of people when they first get into more custom posts, adding switches, changing the way things are done don't do is test and verify, I am guilty of it.
While everything is done to preserve the output of the post, there can be unexpected changes. Use caution when running newly revised or edited post processors. Changes in other areas may have occurred unexpectedly. I would say this is the most important step in receiving a new, edited, or updated post. My post has so many added switches and options that control so many things, I will never hand edit a posted code, if I post something and can't control it within my CAM software, I send the post back immediately to my reseller and have them add it.
Joined Nov 14, Location canada. So my question is which software pulls in post file data and utilizes what would be the posted code during simulation? Mastercam with the ModuleWorks MachSim. Post Developers can control MachSim through the post to exactly duplicate the gcode they create.
This is not a generic post you would download for free, which is why most don't know about it. ModuleWorks charges a fee for this integration, and obviously the post dev has a bunch more work beyond creating just the logic for gcode, they have to convert that gcode logic into machsim motion, so obviously this is a paid feature.
Joined Oct 27, Location On Tour It otherwise blows my mind that MC, who HAS post processor development, did not capitalize on posted Gcode verification! I very much realize that posts can very easily add functions and movements that are otherwise invisible. I know this because I personally modified one to force a Z retract by 2" when changing offsets.
Actually that entire operation of running many offsets is invisible to MC. That is a special internal subroutine post.
And ModuleWorks is a separate entity or an MC option? What kind of switches are we talking here? I think most of the stuff I need are at the machine level. It is one thing I loved very few about our Haas.
It came with extra Mcodes AND the relays. Came in very handy. Look at a Fanuc So many ways to do it, yet so expensive in machines that don't have those options factory. I don't like wasting time, but one broken tool can lead to a massive problem. Verify CNC G-code with just one click! You need a third party app or add in.
This would work similar to a lot of the options people have stated above. I would recommend everyone have a custom post built rather than using a generic one that resellers usually have available for free download. No third party app. ModuleWorks MachSim comes installed in built into every copy of Mastercam. It's what you use for generic machine simulation. Apparently not? Third Party App Definition: In computer programming, a third-party software component is a reusable software component developed to be either freely distributed or sold by an entity other than the original vendor of the development platform.
By your definition, there is no such thing as stand alone CAM software then. There isn't one company using only in house tech. Between ModuleWorks and MachineWorks licensed products, that probably covers any software you've ever heard of.
I don't get what you are going on about now? You agree that MachSim can emulate machine motion but since it's 3rd party tech it doesn't count?? Areo Defense Plastic. Joined Apr 25, A topic worthy of conversation if ever there was, lol. Areo Defense said:. NX simulates with a copy of the post used for outputting gcode. It can also simply simulate using the operations, which is what I do for simple 3-axis parts. A friend's company uses Creo to make rocket engine components; I'll ask him how Creo does it when I get a chance.
