Important Notice - Please read this statement before using your post processor:
Post Processor development is an iterative process by both you (the user) and Cimquest, Inc. Any programs written by a new post should be both visually tested (edited and inspected) and test run on the machine tool before being put into production. Cimquest Inc is not responsible for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising out of or in connection with any post processor.

Please provide Cimquest with the information needed regarding the post edit request. This form can be e-mailed, faxed or mailed to us.
