Ohmic sensing replaced with Laser sensor was created by pinder
Laser head senses IHS without touching the workplate which saves a lot of time. Laserhead continues to use capacitive sensing for height sensing.
What if we could add a Capcitive sensor only for IHS and then disable it and switch to voltage sensing. This will save Frequencies messing with capacitive sensor, and it can remove touch off completely.
TalooTHC by taloot would be a great option to work with. What do @phillc54 thinks about it?
Update: Current idea has been updated to laser sensor(TOF10120) at an offset with automatic cover.

Messer Griesheim is the biggest plasma and oxy cnc machine manufacturer and if you take the time to check them out you can clearly see when they changed from heavy gantry and capacitive sensing to very light alu gantry and floating switch sensing and using that as their main selling point.
Now if you do spend some more time and watch some of my first videos and compare the time stamps, it becomes apparent that they got those ideas from my videos, took them about two years.
Same goes for other manufacturers like Esab.
BTW, Esab make the Crossbow and the same machine is made by Steel Tailor, but i never bothered to check who copied who.

Plasma emits so much IR and UV and everything in-between that it would mess up the readings, badly.
That would be much better to use for probing, well eliminate the probing all together, and that would be a good idea, but it would have to be cleaned very often as it would get covered by fine dust from cutting.

That would work perfectly, right until you fire the torch !What if we could hook a cheap tof10120 sesor?
