Torch start position round plate

Post by 14U2CNC »

I have different sizes of plate steel that are round circle shapes.

I want my plasma torch to be in the center of the steel circle plate when I hit run...

This way I can load a circle picture, move torch to center of plate 0.0...Then if my picture is 22 inches in dia. and the steel plate is 23 inches in dia. I know it will be perfectly centered when I hit run...

Does it make sense what I am trying to do?
My torch start point has always been bottom left of drawings to date.
Thanks for anybody that can point me in the right direction

When you load a drawing into SheetCam you can choose to center it on 0,0.
