    Question programming bolt hole pattern

    Does anyone know if its possible to program a bolt hole pattern by using angles instead of point to point without having a G68 (for coordinate system rotation) command a controller? All I want to do is change the radius of the bolt hole pattern but when I do that I have to go to a cad system to get my coordinates. A cam system won't work because we would like to change this at the machine.

    Yes you can but that is option G74/G75, on other hand you can trig it out.....
    The best way to learn is trial error.
