Hello, I have a question for other simCNC users.
I've created a vertical screen and written various scripts for probing a raw part/workpiece. These scripts also take into account the part's tilt/rotation around the Z-axis, and the program to be executed is rotated accordingly using G68. This works perfectly fine. However, as soon as I want to change tools, machine a serial part in a vise with a stop, and then move within the G53 machine coordinate system, errors/crashes occur because the G68 rotation also affects the machine coordinate system. I'm not familiar with this behavior from other industrial controllers(Haidenhein, Datron and so on).
Have you experienced this as well, or how does it work for you? I reported this to support in November 2024, and they told me it would be fixed in the next update.
Now version 3.6 has been released, but the problem persists.
Therefore, my question is whether I'm the only one who's noticed this problem... It's annoying for me and my hobby, but for a business, it's completely unacceptable!
I'd appreciate reading your feedback on this.
