Title: Writing results of probing in to G-code
Post by: MojsterMiha on October 25, 2008, 09:15:36 AM

Hi,
I want to probe three positions (Z height with touch probe) on my raw piece and then mill a groove parallel to the surface (please see sketch)
Please, how can I do this?

My idea is something like this:

G00 X0 Y0 Z20
G00 Z5

G01 Z0 (+read from DRO)    ´it is possible something like this??

G01 X50 Y20  Z5 (+read from DRO)

G01 X100 Y0 Z0 (+read from DRO)

G00 Z20
G30

Please, any suggestion.

Thanx!

Have a look at the teach wizard, it may do what you want. There is also a plugin that does similar, its called JCode.
