Hello I am looking for a bit of information on what mm post processor. Using vectric aspire rotary wrapping. I am using black box x32 rotary a axis on y2 any information. Would be helpful thank you
Can I use the grbl mm post processor or the openbuild mm processor in aspire for rotary I understand vectric is not 4th axis just wrapping. My machine setup is X normal as well is z. y motors parallel in y rotary y2
The standard posts are for standard 2/2.5D/3D work, you can try (not sure if it will work), but most folks that use BlackBox with wrapping uses the Rotary Demon post (has a couple tweaks thats better than stock posts when working with wrapping). That said, that expects the more typical "wrapping" style machine where the rotary plugs into X or Y. Not A-axis. For A-axis output - would probably require editing post to output A (Replace Y-gcodes with A-gcodes) Not sure how mm/deg would play into that - perhaps best to ask in the Vectric forums about that (alternatives but not as elegant include flashing 3 Axes firmware, or use a proper 4 axes CAM instead of Vectric so its proper A-Axes gcode, like Fusion 360)
