GENER

ICAM’s post-processor GENER is responsible for converting CAM system CL files into NC programs, based on information previously entered (using the QUEST developer’s module) about the machine and controller combination.

• “Starting GENER” explains how to start GENER from ICAM Manufacturing Extractors, or from the desktop as well as from the Windows command prompt.

• “GENER Inputs and Outputs” describes the input CL file and the output NC program, operator’s verification listing, quick reference log and backplot files generated by the post-processor.

• “Using GENER” describes the operation of the post-processor.
