Title: Step and Repeat Function
Post by: engraversoflight on July 24, 2017, 12:45:40 PM

Does Mach have a step and repeat function?  For instance, I want to carve the word "welcome" at a certain location, but then I want to run 12 at a time, I can set it up to run 12 pcs from Mach?  Or is it better to do this from my Vectric software?  I'd like to do this so I can change the number of parts I am doing each time I pull the file up.

Are you familiar with work offsets? Work offset 1 is G54, work offset 2 is G55.....

Perhaps you could call a sub-routine where the work offset changes....

This should get you started in the right direction
