Mach3 post processors for Milling and Turning


Dear Mach3 community,

finally, they are there, the Mach3 post processors milling and turning, and still free of charge!


Unpack the files and folders with a ZIP program in any folder.

Copy the total of 10 post processor files Mach3-M.TCM /.TML/.TRT/.TSL/.TTM (mill) and Mach3-T.TCM /.TML/.TRT/.TSL/.TTM (lathe) in your CNCezPRO folder / Machines.

Copy the four project folders DemoMach3-M, DemoMach3-M-Prfstck (milling) and DemoMach3-T, DemoMach3-T-Prfstck (turning) in your CNCezPRO folder.


Settings in Mach3, so that the representations agree with CNCezPRO 

For milling:
Config ==> Select Native Units ==> MM's (Units mm)
Config ==> General Config ==> IJ Mode Inc (I,J and K incremental)

For turning:
Config ==> Select Native Units ==> MM's (Units mm)
Config ==> General Config ==> IJ Mode Inc (I,J and K incremental)
Config ==> Ports and Pins ==> Turn Options ==> X-Mode Diameters (X as diameter)
Config ==> Tool Path ==> Show Tool as above centerline in Turn (turning behind the centerline)
Remark: CNCezPRO can only display turning behind the centerline. If you own a machine which turns in front of the axis, the machining directions of the shaper tool (on the left / on the right) are to be exchanged.

Now the DemoMach3 projects for turning and milling can be opened in CNCezPRO and can be processed.

Enclosed are the German reference lists for turning and milling as PDF files for printing out. Currently the grey printed Mach3 functions cannot be used yet in CNCezPRO.

The post processors are still a beta version, not yet quite complete and not yet fully developed, therefore, no guarantee.
But always enough for the common applications.

Proposals and improvement suggestions are accepted with pleasure.


Much fun while trying out!

Stephan Pausch
