AFAIK there is no 5 axis tool length (and radius) compensation implemented in LinuxCNC. G43 will simply offset Z value and that is it. For moving the tool control point (tcp) wou need to adjust DH parameters of your machine, particularly for the last joint. Since those are available on HAL pins, I do not see a problem to change them "on fly". -- Viesturs ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ November Webinars for C, C++, Fortran Developers Accelerate application performance with scalable programming models.
