Inventor CAM post for Genos 560 V mill?

[Schjell]

Hi,
Does anyone here use the mentioned machine (no rotary, just 3-axis) with Inventor CAM?
Not to keen on making one or using one that hasn't been tried and tested.
I appreciate that you might not want to give it away, in that case a pointer to who we can buy one from would be nice.

I see that there's a generic post for Okuma on the AD website, but I'm guessing there's prob one made for the specific machine in question.

No rush, won't get our machine until spring.

Kind regards,
John

I have one that has been working since about 2015. 560 with indexer.

Some of the posts i have tried for my 5 axis have automatic Hicut For mine I use pass through with templates before the finishing passes.

Getting the Warmup cycle into a Gmacro w then just firing a M111 in the morning without changing programs was nice. We use G116 tool change but that can be edited easy enough. .

I don't have all the renishaw probing cycles working on my 560 post though.

Thanks, we got hold of a company that has a post we can use, albeit for the smaller 460 or what it's called. Will hopefully work. We're just getting a 3 axis and preparation for rotary and renishaw.
