Adopting new technology requires knowledge. OPEN MIND and the wider community have built a robust ecosystem for learning how to master the new post processor.
Work with your OPEN MIND application engineer to map out your specific machine configuration, controller options, and kinematics.

Because it runs a full kinematic simulation, posting a complex 3D surface path (500k lines) takes 30-60 seconds. The old .pof took 5 seconds. This frustrates programmers doing rapid iterations.
The new HyperMILL post processor is a pro-grade tool for professional manufacturing . It transforms the post from a passive translator into an active safety system. If you can afford the time to set it up and learn it, you will never crash a machine from a bad posted code again. If you just need a simple 3-axis post, stick with the legacy version.
