I'm not sure if my question is in the same ballpark as what the OP wants, but I was thinking about this possibility the other day: Then the controller can be switched to the #2 state, and the second piece of material can be machined. The first job can be performed from the #1 state. The materials can be loaded onto the machine, preferably using a fixture for ease of referencing. In the Menu +2 area (coordinate state #2), the Origin would be set for the second piece of material. In the Menu + 1 area (coordinate state #1), the Origin would be set for the first piece of material. The surface can be set up as two 24” areas. This feature is useful when creating fixtures or when separating the machine surface into quadrants for specific tasks.Īll Origins are in reference to the same HOME and can be alternated as needed.įor example: If using a 48” work area, to perform jobs that are less than 24” in size. The coordinate screen will change and show that set of coordinates. To switch between coordinate states, press MENU & (any number 1-9). Each coordinate state can have a unique programmed Origin. Where the #1 found before each axis identifies the coordinate state the controller is in. The RichAuto controller allows multiple offsets (Origins) to be programmed. You can run up to 9 separate pieces before a bit change. You can have up to 9 origins at the same time.

Set Multiple Origins, each work piece having its own (0,0,0). If you are making multiple copies of the same file, you can lessen the pain of tool changes.
