That't the point. "Cutting" tools I could come up with are: spindle, turning, 
EDM, laser cutter, water jet, plasma thorch, 3D printing and I have even seen 
sewing on this forum. Motion module have same signals but tool varies. It would 
make sense with possibility to change the motion.spindle module according to 
tool used just as it make sense for kinematics.

I will use this m-codes. Should just put generator in real machine and get 
parameters for gap control correct.

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who
bring their own devices (BYOD) to work are irked by the imposition of MDM
restrictions. Mobile Device Manager Plus allows you to control only the
apps on BYO-devices by containerizing them, leaving personal data untouched!
