Good day all. I was wondering if there is a g-code that returns a router to the last location.

When I probe my Z hight for tool 1, I need to regenter the location of the prone for every tool I change. Is there a way to program linuxcnc to return to the last position when doing a tool change

Hi
the Toolchange is done by G30 Position on behave of Machine Coordinate system G53
it then changes back to the System you are on G54-G59.9
and as you init a toolchange the CAM knows where you have been so the CAN shoudt do the JOB

but you want to do it manuell as i read correct
you can store the position LAST by Mcode in a VAR and return after toolchange by another Mcode

look into PLASMAC there is a Return to last Pos

Hi. I recently recon my router. It is a Ruijie machine from China. If I remember correctly. After every tool change whether it is in a program or manual. The machine would return to the last co-ordinate and the it would go to the tight co-ordinate and carry on with the job.

I'm looking to do the same in linuxcnc
