With G-Code Ripper you can reuse probe data between multiple operations.
Here is the process:
1. Enter the offset between the probe and cutting tool (if there is any)
2. Zero the tool on some z-height reference that is repeatable (if the reference is on the workpiece make sure the reference point will not be machined away in any of the operations before the last operation.)
3. Open a g-code file that covers the x-y area of to be machined and the Generate a "Probe Only" g-code file with G-Code Ripper and run the g-code to generate a text file with probe data points.
4. Open the first g-code file in g-code ripper and open the probe data file created in Step #3. Then save an "Adjusted" g-code file
5. Open the g-code files for each of the following steps in G-Code Ripper and save "Adjusted" g-code files for each
6.Run the first Adjusted g-code file
7. Change the tool if required. Zero the new tool on the z-height reference point used in step #2 and run the next g-code file.
8. Repeat step #7 for all of the remaining g-code files.
