Find Software for Z zero after tool change

[Mr.Chips]

I few months back I saw a fellow offering software for sale that would auto zero on the material top and then to a fixed Z spot on the CNC frame. If a tool change was required the machine would go to the Z spot on the frame (after the tool change) and re zero automatically taking into account the original Z zero on the material.

I would like to read more about this utility and possibly purchase it.

Thanks

Hi,

I don't know if this would be of any help but if you scroll down on this website you will see a video of Mach3 doing semi-automatic tool changes utilizing a fixed plate mounting to the machine frame to normalize tool lengths during an M6 call for a tool change.The CNC Woodworker - Mach3 2010

I have this software and it works GREAT and the price is right. I have some programs where I do multiple tool changes and works for me without any issues. Just a satisfied customer.
