General Mach Discussion / Plasma cutter for retangelar and square tube?
« on: September 28, 2009, 06:49:20 PM »
Hi,
I want to build an CNC tube cutter that has the possibility to cut round, square en rectangular tubes.
Building the machine will not be the hardest part of the project. I’m thinking of using an 4-way chuck for turning the tube (A-axis).
And for the other tree axis (X,Y and Z) I’ll make an portal.
My biggest concern is the software to run this. Is it possible to run this with Mach3?
Or has someone tried to build something like this?
I hope someone can get me in the right direction.
