Hi All
I am extremely new to world of CNC. We have just recieved our machine from Quick CNC the machine is set up with a
Syntec controller, Manuel Tool Change with a auto touch off tool sensor. We will be using V carve pro.
In v carve/aspire the installed post processors for syntec are for auto tool change machines, and we are confused how a manual tool change would be specified in the post processor.
We prefer not to have seperate toolpath files for each tool used in a job.
Is there any information on how manual tool changers are done between toolpaths in 1 file?
In lay terms, we would like the machine to run the tool path with the first tool then return home, wait whilst we perform a manual tool change then on the press of a "continue button", the tool sensing will commence and continue with the next tool path in the file.
It appears this may of been done with the "shop bot machine" but not real sure???
Any help would be great
Thanks
Anthony
