Guys,
Which of the Milltronics post processors is correct for a Centurion 6 mill? I'm using 2007 and I also have V21.


I clicked on the 'mill only' tab of their website, but I see several SLS processors. I thought those were for a slant bed lathe.

Why would there be a different post for English and Metric parts?

I've called the BobCad tech support, but I'm waiting for them to call me back. I get the impression that they hire a calling service, which only relays a message.

I need to get this setup and running. I need start making chips. After that, I'll start learning some more.

Have you had any success editing your own Post Processor??

If you show us a working G-Code Program with your control I'm sure we can help. Once you learn the basics of post processor editing it is pretty easy to edit for others.

Cheers!!!!!!!!!!!

But will bobcad work to make a lathe part.

Yes it will. The only bug that I have found is with the Tool Nose Radius Compensation. Other than that it works.

Have any of you recieved your lathe manual in the mail yet? Not that it's a big deal. I have downloaded it from the website. More curiousity than anything else as they said it would be sent right out.

Under mill only the centurian 6 sls is for the mill.
