The PTTOPT postprocessor supports a number of point-to-point machine tools and their corresponding machine control units: Wiedeman N/C Turret Punch Press, Knight Model 65 Jig Borer, Burgmaster 2BHT Drill with Ferranti Control, Burgmaster 2BHT Drill with G.E. Control, Burgmaster 2BHT Drill with Pratt and Whitney Control, Burgmaster 3BHT Drill with G.E. Control, CSIP 3K Jig Borer with Sperry Control, and Moore Model 3 Jig Bore with Bendix Dynapath Control. This program conveys information from the APT processor to the machine control unit to develop a desired geometric configuration of a part. The postprocessor deals with machine tool geometry and dynamics as well as the control unit options and input characteristics.
