Recently I was working with a customer that needed a post processor for the V25 software and his ShopBot machine. After downloading the ShopBot controller software I was able to create a working G-code post processor.

At this time I have tested drilling, cutting lines and arcs. 2D cutting programs that are being run on a machine without a tool changer.
