Hey

i am having bit of a headache with a old Triac Fanuc- OM-B machine from 1988ish.
i have tried using EdgeCam to send cnc codes, but i seems that the post processor ain't right. it says that i am using a wrong code.
tried sevreal driffrent set ups, but haven't got any further.

so what i am wondering about now is:
1.Will Quickcam 3D work with this machine, just plug it in and be on my way
2. how expensive is quickcam
3. will i need both quick cam and vr milling v5, can i just use one of them and wich is best
4.does VR milling v5 work with triac fanuc OM-B, how much does it cost

Big thanks

The VR Milling will not run the machine.

You may be able to get a program out of QuickCAM Pro that would run on the machine but there is a limit to the size of file that can be stored in memory so you will probably have to drip feed the machine.
