The ADVCON postprocessor is a modification of an existing postprocessor which supported several different drilling machines. The ADVCON postprocessor has been modified to support the Advance Control 93 R/D CNC routing/drilling machine exclusively. This postprocessor conveys information from the APT processor to the machine control unit and is concerned with placing a tool on a part to develop the desired geometric configuration. The postprocessor deals with machine tool geometry and dynamics as well as the control unit options and input characteristics. Software is available from the National Energy Software Center, Argonne National Laboratory, 8700 South Cass Avenue, Argonne, IL 60439.
