G'day all,
I'm going to buy the Tormach 1100 shortly and I working out what accessories to buy.
I have done a lot of milling with a (manual) mill, that uses a digital read out.
On my current mill, if I want to find a hole centre, I just put my edge finder roughly in the middle of the hole. Then I touch off the left side and
zero the read out. I then go the opposite edge and the use the 1/2 function (on the read out) to get the centre point.
I then repeat the procedure on the other axis.
Nice and easy and it works.
Here's my question ....
Tormach sells the Haimer Zero Master and I understand It's intended use.
Can this unit be used to find the centre of a hole, using the Mach 3 software ?
I know that Tormach sell the Haimer - Centro, which will do this, but it seems like over kill (and costly), if the edge finder is capable of being used.
