Hello everyone, good luck with your work.

For a machine I'm designing, I need a plug-in that works on mach3 and converts directly from dxf and plt.

but just like in 3d printers, there is a pump in my machine, I want to use the A axis to run this pump. When extracting g code, it should also remove the A axis. Has anything like this been done before?

If it has been done, is there an example?

Mach3 and Mach4 run g-code that is produced by an external program.

What you want may have been done, you need to search the forum with key words.

What you are trying to do was there in MACH 1 (ONE) and abandoned. I remember Mach 1 could run from HPGL and DXF directly. But later DXF to g-code was offloaded to Lazycam.

For Mach 3,
You can use the established PLTplotV098.set Screen set if you want to run directly from HPGL PLT files.
