Here is a Post Processor I have been fine tuning for our Tormach 24R Router w/ Automatic Tool Changer and based on the stock ‘PathPilot Inch’ PP included in the Vectric Post Processor Database. (The PP in the online database can include dangerous negative Z-Axis moves directly after a tool change and may crash into your tool rack upon initial Toolpath / Tool Change Operation.) I hope this will help a few 24R ATC owners out as Vectric seems quite popular in the Education Sector.

No Problem! I hope some folks find it useful. It was a great experience for me, really digging into the code and fine-tuning the presentation and function of the G-Code for my students. We have not had any machine crashes since implementing this Post-Processor on ALL of our Lab computers. (AND I love the ability to skip the ToolPath Verification Pauses with the M01 Break Execution Button in Path Pilot. This and the Block Delete function/button really make dialing in prototype to production files easy.)

Updated PP with G54 ‘Work Offset’ in the Header. (G-Code can now be more easily edited if using a different work offset as Vectric V-Carve Pro does not support G54-59 ‘Work Offsets’ directly.)
