Post processor help

Post by Fleeto1981 »

Hey everyone,

I’ve got a Spartan 1313 cnc and I’m using Vcarve Pro 9.5.

My computer died a death today and I’ve had to reinstall Vcarve.

I can’t find the Post processor file so am stuck.

Is there anyone using a Spartan that has the correct post processor?

I used to save my files in mm in .Nc format.

Desperately need to get the machine working and just can’t find this file anywhere.

Thank you.

If your computer didn't pack in because of a hard drive failure then you can hook the old hard drive up as an external drive to retrieve all your data.
If your CNC manufacturer isn't listed do you know what controller it uses because that probably will be :lol: :lol:

Hey Martin,

It didnt pack in due to harddrive but foolishly I tried restoring my pc back to an earlier date which made things worse and then I had to wipe pc and stat again.

So havent got anything.

Mantec sent me a file but it just wont show up in Vcarve pro for some reason and causes it to crash.

Very weird for a post processor to cause VCarve to crash. What type is the file they sent you and where are you putting it?
