Have you looked at the files with a text editor. Notepad should works. It may be a G code file but just made on the machine and not in a cad software. I have gone to Cimco Edit to see where a file is messed up.https://www.cimco.com/software/cimco-edit/That is after the post output. Sorry I don't have a copy now.

The company that did them has closed down but the owner was kind enough to give me the files on a zip drive. Not only that he also gave me a 1/8" 3 flute Niagara cutter used to cut the fins along with verbal instructions on how he did things.
Is it possible to translate those files into G-Code? I did the original drawings. I could do G-Code using my AlibreCAM from MecSoft. But I'd like to be able to look at what the HAAS was told to do. Is there a way to translate these files? They are too big to attach but I can email them if someone knows how to do this.
