Hi, we did not develop the post processor for HSM, or any other system. We just helped them with the codes that are provided with all Roland machines. So I expect CAMWorks etc have a Generic G-Code post that works on our machines. They can always contact us for help. Just ask them to goto their Loca...

Note the connection is through the tool, collet, spindle bearings etc. We have seen on older machines when the bearings are worn out, the Z Sensor becomes unreliable. We have seen customers use a sma...

All support on development of drivers ended in 2005 and 2007, hence no support to later Windows. Maybe a USB Parallel could work on the MDX-3, PIX-3 needs a Serial cable and the USB/Serial adaptors never worked in my opinion. They looked like they did and then stopped. If you find a way, then I am s...
