Using Ductposts (.opt files) with PowerMill 2017 and later releases

Modified on Tue, 21 Jan at 12:59 PM

To use old Ductpost (.opt) style posts with PowerMill 2017 and later you need to download and install the file labeled DuctPost_1.zip from this page: https://www.autodesk.com/support/technical/article/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Download-link-to-Ductpost-1-6-10-for-Powermill.html

You will still get the warning about them being no longer supported but they will continue to work for the foreseeable future.


As these posts are no longer supported it is highly recommended you get in contact with us about converting them to the newer Autodesk Manufacturing Post Processing Utility format (.pmoptz)
