Hi.
what do you mean?

What is 'sketcher workbench'? I assume it is some sort of drawing program. If that is the case then no, Mach4
will not run such a program.

The normal course of events is to use a drawing or drafting program to draw your part. The use a CAM program
(and post processor file) to generate GCode.

GCode is the standard code required by the vast majority of CNC machines and for which CNC software like Mach4
operates.
