CAM Post Processors
A post-processor converts the toolpaths displayed within your CAM system into NC code so you can run them on a specific CNC machine. When you create NC code, you need to choose the correct post-processor file for the CNC machine on which the program for cutting the part is to be run. Thankfully, there is a vast library of Post Processors available for the Autodesk CAM products.
