Title: Check the hole was drilled
Post by: lightntrax on May 30, 2012, 03:05:38 AM
I am thinking about using an optical sensor to tell my machine that the hole was drilled.  I am doing a continuous drill system with a small drill bit.  I would like to know that the hole was drill and the bit didnt break off in the hole.  This would step through the subroutine in my G Code.  Is this possible?

Thanks.  Eddy
