There will be a different “post” for each G-code dialect the CAM software supports. An instance of such a translation is often referred to as a 'post'. Doing so requires a CAM post processor that generates the exact G-code dialect used by the machine Control Module (Sinumeric, Fanuc, Mazatrol, Heidenhein, Toshiba etc) that is being targeted. The CAM software analyzes the CAD model and determines what tooling and toolpaths will be used to mill the desired features.
