RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: I'm curious

I guess that should have been my original question; if "Mach is all that AND
a bag-o-chips"; why doesn't he provide Third party support so those of us
who can write to industrial automation device do it! Hell I would in a heart
beat as soon as this project I'm is over. But Mach doesn't support such an
interface (COM,DLL,whatever).

It not a question of converting G-Code to ?? Code; it's where do you want to
go and at what rate then the third party driver (loose term) can convert
that for use by the controller or driver/controller.

Sounds like this is a Mach group! Any other CNC software out there that make
this much noise?

So what exactly do I use for software to drive these with? How do I
get the G Code in there? If you've got a better solution, please
teach us. I've eyed PLCs for a while, but the learning curve is
steeper, I think, but I don't know. I just don't know how to make
them go.
