A Cimatron Post Processor is a program that translates Cimatron NC (Numerical Control) data (toolpaths and procedures) into specific CNCCNC(Computer Numerical Control) machine tool commands (machine code). These commands are known as Posts or G-Code programs (see the Glossary for additional information on G-Code).

GPP2 is the second generation of Cimatron's General Post Processor.

Important: This application is for the use of qualified personnel only. Contact your Cimatron Provider or Reseller to create the appropriate G-Code.

This Help provides the complete information necessary for developing 4/5X post processors with GPP2. It assumes the reader is familiar with 5X machines and with 4/5 NC programming using Cimatron.

Some functionality may be dependent on the product package. Contact your Reseller if you require a license.
