SERVICE OVERVIEW
SolidCAM Post-Processors
SolidCAM Post-Processors are the essential link between your CAM software and your CNC machine, delivering precise, ready-to-run G-code with zero manual editing. Built on an open, customizable post-processor platform, they’re developed in GPPL and fully editable within Microsoft Visual Studio Code, giving you complete control over CNC post-processing for any machine, controller, or G-code format.
At the core is the VMID (Virtual Machine ID), which defines machine kinematics, output settings, and user-specific G-code structures. The result: highly reliable, optimized code that runs perfectly on your CNC machine, every time.
Key Features
Machine Simulation
Delivers accurate, kinematics-based simulations of machines, toolpaths, and setups directly from post-processor data.
MCO Cycles
Includes pre-defined MCOs for complex machine motions, enabling fast, automated programming of non-toolpath movements with accurate machine previews.
G-Code Format
Generates any G-code format or structure — including multi-channel, sub-procedural, and parametric outputs — for maximum CNC compatibility and flexibility.
