I talked o my HFO and they were not alot of help. They said it has been done but had no info on integration (since I did not get thier robot is my guess) I purchased a used robot as the master (operator) and the machine as the slave. This is easy on on Heidenhien controls but not so sure about the Haas. And since I know someone will come up with the grand idea or programming the robot to punch keys FWIW it is not an articulated robot so that is not possible. The machine is a 2010 VM2 with all options mcode, probe macros, etc. Any leads in the right direction would be appreciated.
