G-Code, CAD, and CAM discussions / non co-ordinated move
« on: November 20, 2011, 02:21:44 PM »
I use mach3 to run a rubber belt grinding machine and use the "A" axis to move the belt forward while a grinding head grinds the belt as it moves. Right now I have it set up to move the grinding head to the surface of the belt, then click a button to start moving the belt (Axis) then turn on the motor to the grinding head. I want to click 1 button to start moving the belt, slight delay, then drop the head. All the GCodes I have tried move Z and A in a coordinated move, meaning the head does not reach the belt until it is at the end of the run. When I click the button DoOemButton (313) I cannot drop the the head while the belt is moving. Is there a GCode to move A 10000 and Z-1 independently (non coordinated move)?
