NX 8.0 CAM Post (Subroutines)
(OP)
Anyone have a fanuc post that will post subroutines when instances are used? Or even a post that will post subroutines at all? My reseller said they could make me one but I wanted to see if someone had one already done.
Thanks

You add it in to the sub-routine section of post builder, specify all the variables as required by the programming manual and call it through a UDE in the CAM.
If you give me some specifics I can go into some more detail.
What type of sub-routine are you trying to create?

You will need a Web Key account which is free to users with maintance.

If you are going to write a lot of posts, I recommend the Post Building Techniques class, which includes an extensive book.

Just postprocess a program containg different operations and the postprocessor outputs diferent subprograms and a main one, they can be split by tools or by operations depending on customer's requirements, no udes, no after-postprocess manual editing, our customer is postprocessing the programs directly to the CF and straight away plugs it to the machine.
Hope this helps to show it can be done.
