    Postprocessor for Camworks and Mach3

    I've just received a Deepgroove Taig CNC mill and was wondering if I will need a postprocessor file. I'm using Camworks and Mach3. I'm new to CNC so I hope someone can help.

    Thanks,
    Joe

    I know that the problem is Line 6. G code was generated in CamWorks.

    Hi Larry

    I did not find. I started working with BobCAD lathe version. This software has a processor for Mach3 and now everything is fine.
