Can Mach3 suport a 'dual head' plasma table?
« on: April 20, 2015, 03:18:34 PM »
I'm looking into putting a small drilling head on my plasma table. The drill would share the carriage with the plasma torch, but would be offset approximately 6" to the right.

The drill up/dn will be my A axis, no problem there, but how can I set this up in Mach3 to recognize the two different tool positions on the Y axis? Or can I at all?

Thanks for your help

You can use your code to offset or if not using the two heads in the same part then you could use two different profiles.
