General Mach Discussion / Laser position sensor and mach 3
« on: February 28, 2014, 12:44:25 PM »
All, I have an interesting problem. I have a machine that needs to take an input from a as yet unspecified laser position sensor and use that value as feedback to control other motions in the machine. I can see immediately how to implement all of that into mach except the laser position sensor.
Has anyone coupled mach with a laser or other non-contact position sensor? I had thought about the touch probe option but the part I need to read is so flexible that the touch probe could easily deform it.
thanks
Greg
