At DDX, we provide highly customizable post processors and software plugins. These tools help you optimize the integration between CAD/CAM solutions and centralized CNC machines. The goal is clear: to improve the accuracy of production operations and streamline processes for increased profitability.
What is a Post Processor?
A post-processor is a component that translates the code generated by CAD/CAM softwareinto instructions that CNC machines with unique features and parameters can understand. Its purpose is to raise the quality standards of the machinery for greater machining accuracy. The post-processor is customized based on the machine model and the type of machining, and it allows you to:
translate CAD/CAM-generated code into machine language
optimize the workflow between the software and the CNC machine
Plugins are extensions that enrich CAD/CAM software with new features. The result? An optimized user experience and automated processes. Thanks to plugins, you can:
better manage tool libraries;
add analysis tools to your solutions;
create custom commands to speed up your workflow
Software plugins are not tied to machine instructions, but they significantly improve your software’s capabilities and interface for enhanced performance.
