Hi all,
I am new to all this, so I may be dealing with something which is old hat to the regulars - please be patient!
I hope to use Mach 3 to control an existing engraver, which I'm sure it can do. The jobs are all similar, and there will be about 20 standard components, each needing one line of text. I want the operator to load the component into a fixture, select the component type, and then input the line of text. They then press the GO button (in some form) and the job starts. No programming, no G codes, nothing like that bothering the operator. So all the generation of G codes and so on happens automatically.
The big question is - can this be done?
The second question is - can anyone give me a clue as to how?
Thanks in advance,
Keith
