Having trouble with Coordinate System on multihead router.

Huey, Would you mind sharing your remap files? I would like to look at them.

i guess it will be a real interesting remap to be public so many use a sqare Toolholder or even a cube on all sides

Yeah, sure.
Fairly basic, but it works. I think I learnt about it from you, Bob - except I avoided the Python way!

can you post a image of this realy interesting tool setup on the mashine

I'm using an older version of Vectric Aspire - came with the machine, and it works mostly for what I need.

The images are not the best; I am away from home and these are the only ones I found:

Nice job. yeah I have to learn it this way.NGC remap. python with a complicated remap has issues.

I just got another machine and am going to try it with ngc remap. THis machine has no tool changer but two spindles and a drill bank.

Cool machine BTW....

Hi I have a similar router with a similar boring head. When working with the boring head, my CAM will always select the tooltable offsets of tool 1 using "H1 G43" then the actual coordinate is subtracted/added to the gcodes depending on which drill is needed (since the drills are standard pitched at 32mm for this setup and saved in CAM setup).

Also an interesting point is that the CAM is able to activate multiple drills at one go for, say, high speed drilling of shelf supports at standard 32mm intervals.
