General Mach Discussion / Local rotated system ang G68 doesn't work

« on: November 07, 2017, 02:27:17 AM »

Hi
Im new to the mach 3 work and just have completed building my machine.
I'm trying to rotate my x-y plane. I give the mach 3 the lift angle or trying to write G68 command. The DROs of coordinates actually moving on both axes when im pressing one arrowkey but the machine is moving straight only on one axis.
Anyone have a solution?
Thanks

General Mach Discussion / How to rotate local coordinates system by edge finder?

« on: October 31, 2017, 10:30:52 AM »

Hi everybody.
I am really new to G-code world.
I would like to know how to rotate my X-Y table in mach3 by touching my plate at 3 points (Just like this video from 01:05- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhZdbgM6S70 ).
Actually i can stop the machine when touching 2 points of the same rotated axis (X for instance) and then calculating the Tangens of this rotation angle, but its too much math.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!
