Re-Post - the "NC Translator"

 

Quickly change an NC program from one CNC controller to another without re-visiting your CAM system.

Re-Post provides fast and easy forward and reverse translations of G-code files on the shop floor to effectively re-route production jobs that have been programmed for one CNC to another CNC machine without reprogramming.

  • Easy-to-use and user-configurable
  • Allows proven legacy programs to be re-used on different CNC machines
  • CAM system independent - multiple machines can be supported from one CAM system
  • Production changes can be adjusted on the shop floor

Additional functionality in the system supports "flavoring", re-fomating, conversion, transformation, arc formatting, calculating, analyzing, estimating, speed & feed optimization, family of part programming, sequence number management, space management, and more.

Re-Post's basic operation is a four step process (click on the screen graphic):

  1. Open an NC-program file
  2. Click on the translator to use
  3. Click the "GO" button
  4. Read results and save them to disk

Re-Post is seamlessly integrated within editNC to provide the ultimate tool for NC program management, NC editing, file compare, toolpath simulation, and machine tool communication.
