Introduction to GPP
GPP is essentially a programming environment that allows the development of post-processors for Cimatron NC.
The GPP process consists of the following:
-
Customizing the GPP environment by defining a specific post processor. This takes place in a number of stages.
-
Running the post processor to create the G-Code file required by a specific CNC machine.
To access the GPP Post Processor, run the Cimatron Control Panel and select the NC tab:
-
Select Cimatron Control Panel from Start > Programs > Cimatron.
-
Select the NC tab.
The buttons indicated below relate to the GPP post processor.
