General Mach Discussion / Re: THC IN A PLASMA TUBE MACHINE
« on: January 17, 2016, 01:43:23 PM »
Hi Javier:
one of the machines in my department at work is a 6 axis laser, we use a cad/cam system to program it that generates g-code in x,y,z,a,b,c, axis. your machine would need the same sort of g-code, that is x,y,z,a axis if you only need rotation around the x axis. this type of program can be written line by line without a cad/cam sysytem but I sure would't do it. your try looking at http://www.freebyte.com/cad/cadcam.htm for software.
good luck
