Modify how Artcam makes gcode?

Mostly Printed CNC - MPCNC Advice

Hi all,

I am making gcode for MPCNC in artcam (2018 ver if it’s important).

I am not satisfied with how it’s directing Zaxis to elevate between the layers on roughing cut program. It says “G0Z10.000” while I would rather like it to say “G1Z10.000F1000”.

Currently I have to open each gcode in text editor and use ctrl+h to find and replace every time which is a pain. Is there any workaround?

I have never used artcam but what you are asking is typically what we use a Post Processor for. It is used to format the information the way we want it.

What kind of post processor? Is it a specific software?

If it allows for you to have a post processor you write the code yourself (or modify an existing one). See if it has post processors, it really should.

Seems like it really has. I will investigate. Thanks!

It is made by autodesk, you should see if our fusion post processor will work or at least get you started.
