Subject: Dolphin CAM post processor for Kmotion
Hello
this is my first post, I am looking for a post processor configuration file (.ppr) for Dolphin CAM to output G code which is compatible with DynoMotion KmotionCNC. Can anybody recommend a suitable one? Alternatively does anyone know which of the existing configuration files is the most generic or simplest and so would be a good starting point for experimentation?
For reference I have a Wabeco F1210 based 3 axis mill with a closed loop stepper motor system controlled by a Kflop board.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Rob,

I'm not familiar with Dolphin CAM.  The KMotionCNC GCode Interpreter is derived from the original public domain EMC like Mach3 and LinuxCNC were so any of those posts should be similar.

KMotionCNC only accepts arcs in incremental I J mode.  See:
