Post Processor Disclaimer

It is the responsibility of the user to make sure these files generate code that is compliant with their machines. Hawk Ridge Systems does not guarantee these files are appropriate for any machine.

As with any new post processor, verify the code is doing what you expect before running parts on your machine. Suggested steps to verify the code include:

1. Simulating the Toolpath in SOLIDWORKS CAM/CAMWorks
2. Post process the code
3. A list of some common items to verify in the posted code include:
   • Tool Numbers
   • Tool Offsets – Do the Height (H) and Diameter (D) Offsets match your machine
   • Work Offsets are correct (G54 etc)
   • Suitable Clearance and Rapid Planes
4. Backplot the code with the relevant machine settings in the NC Editor (CIMCO)
5. Simulate the toolpath on your controller and check for errors
6. Dry run the program at low feedrates and RPMs without material and in free space (away from vises, chucks, fixtures and stock material) and watch to verify machine movements and be ready to stop the machine at any time. Ensure the Optional Stop switch is On (if applicable). Again, it is the responsibility of the user to make sure these files generate code that is compliant with their machines.
