    Find a Grbl 1.1 compatible post and you should be golden.
    Grbl uses a smaller subset of the LinuxCNC standard, with some extra restrictions, so its worth looking for a post that is Grbl compatible

    Google around, found this:
    CAMBAM post processor for Grbl : hobbycnc
    Not finding anything for Solidcam so quickly though, SW is a bit out of the Grbl style machine user's budget

    Pretty sure the Fusion posts would not work with Solidworks (autodesk vs dassualt systems)
    You could create your own post: github.com/gnea/grbl/wiki
