The typical next step is importing the .ipt into CAM software. Typically there are no "automatic" cam generation. I use Autodesk inventor and have a sherline mill. I use masterCAM x4 to generate my g code.

I have been told I need to use an EMC2 post processor. Can someone please elaborate on this subject and let me know what exactly I will need.
