And by this, @burtoogle means that as long as the firmware accepts X & Y coordinates ("cartesian") and does the inverse kinematics calculation for your scara setup, it should work with Cura. Cura will not do the actual motion conversion for you.
SCARA printers often have a non-rectangular buildvolume. That will be a bit of work to fully support in Cura.

We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
Cura 5.7 is here and it brings a handy new workflow improvement when using Thingiverse and Cura together, as well as additional capabilities for Method series printers, and a powerful way of sharing print settings using new printer-agnostic project files! Read on to find out about all of these improvements and more.

If the machine accepts "standard" gcode, then Cura should be able to slice for it. Do you know what controller/firmware the machine uses?
