I agree about stopping and I have the broken tips to prove it! IMHO an even better solution would be to: * Allow jogging as usual if probe is not tripped * If probe trips, reverse motion until probe is untripped * Move forward in the original direction at slow speed until probe trips again * Stop
This would allow jogging at any speed without fear of probe damage. If the probe trips then one could set X/Y/Z zero when the motion stops. -----Original Message----- From: Nicklas SB Karlsson <n...@nksb.eu> Sent: June 25, 2022 10:53 AM To: emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Emc-users] Stop then probe tripped during move, machine does not stop? Expected movement to stop the "probe tripped during move" but this does not happen. Risk to make a mistake bending the probe then jogging or using other g-code commands to move it into place is to small so guess it would be a good idea if machine stop then this happen? Have also been thinking about an attribute in the tool table indicate if it is a probe. Pretty sure it is not possible to access the comment field from g-code but use a special value for ninth axis would solve it though these kind of special uses tend to add up over time and it is easy to forget how it was made. Have seen Renishaw probes for sale with broken tip, maybe more than once.
