I’m still getting syntax errors on comment lines.
Note, this was not very straight forward and resulted in several iterations of trial and error until I got it close enough. I then used this tool to edit a Postprocessor from scratch and compile it into something Solidworks understand. If you do not it will not install properly/fully and may not work properly. When installing it is necessary to install it as Administrator. I downloaded “Universal Post Generator” from Camworks who provides the CAM functionality for Solidworks. As such I embarked on writing my own post for Solidworks. There are some generic postprocessors for Solidworks but none seemed to support exactly the post processing options and syntax I wanted to see. Since we have a Jet Mill converted to CNC (running GRBL and a Chinese controller) and several of the other mentors, including myself, having CNC routers like the ShapeOKO 2 and X-carve we wanted to be able to have a one-stop shop for doing our design and CAM toolpath generation.
As part of mentoring out High School’s First Robotics Team Andromeda One I have learned Solidworks.
