Title: Adding a touch plate
Post by: stock3000gt on January 31, 2021, 01:31:44 PM

I was wondering if there is a way to add a touch plate for the corner of x and y and z height. I have the avid cnc  touch plate for reference. I have the hicon integra 7866 motion controller.

More detail of what you are trying to achieve will help

There are probe routines and touch plate routines if you search for them.

I would like the touch plate to be used for setting the work piece zero for x y and z. This would make lining up a bit much easier and repeatable.
