Looking for Mach3 Zdepth Thread - CNCzone.com-The Largest Machinist Community on the net!

Hello,

I stumbled upon a really good thread explaining how to do automatic zdepth in mach3.

He was using an input and tied a +5v signal to the router bit and placed a grounded copper connector on the piece to be worked on.

When he lowered the bit it pulled the signal lo and gave mach3 the signal.

I was wondering if anyone had seen this thread or knows more detail to it.

Thanks for your time,

Derek L
