Probing

Hi everyone, I finished adapting Tomach's probing routines and postprocessor for LinuxCNC today. It does almost everything you might need, finding and setting 3-axis coordinate systems off of stock or part geometry from Fusion360, and then inspecting parts after machining. Here it is in action inspecting a 3d printed test part: photos.app.goo.gl/mTiJ3PbBUnsnzHb86

Here's a zip file with everything you need. Put the subroutines in your Macros folder linked from your linuxcnc .ini file. Then use the LinuxCNCWithProbing.cps postprocessor.

The best part is that instead of using probe-basic, Verser's probe screen or other probe UI's, you can use whatever LinuxCNC UI you want. Because probing isn't dependent on the UI anymore! As you set up probing per job, the settings for probing are saved in Fusion360, so you never have to re-think how to probe, and you can visualize the process as well as specifying the exact probing locations right there in Fusion360.

Credit goes to: 
Tormach for the PathPilot Fusion360 probing routines
XoomSpeed for the postprocessor, test routines and test 3d print 
I adapted the XoomSpeed postprocessor to work with LinuxCNC, mostly just debugging some errors and adding G64 on a per-operation basis

Thank you very much for this wonderful work.
I can't wait to try it.

do you receive the data in a table ?

Hello ,

I just finished my 5axes Linuxcnc machine with XYZBC configuration.

Now I want to do part control with (Probing) but I have no idea where to start, I work with fusion and I just downloaded the PP probing that you put online.

I have of course a lot of questions:
- what type of probe should I buy knowing that I have only one input available on my "break out" card. I use it to measure the length of my tools ( sub program which is called in the main program )

- Do I have to install Prob Basic knowing that I can make my G code program with fusion ?

If someone is interested to answer me, thank you in advance ☺

Hi!
I tried the PP and got some issues: firstly soemthing with the g53 is not ok. i have a metric machine and get this for G30 in code:
(Retracting prior to toolchange - g30z)
G53 G0 Z[25.4 * #5183]

The "test"-programm runs if i replace Z[25.4 * #5183] with Z0 until the 2nd Z Probe. It seems the values probed are not stored to G54 properly. The probe moves somewhere beyond the testpart.
This is the nc code i get of the first 3 operations from the "test"-part:

i have a metric machine

I have the same problem here mate, furthermore, in the post settings in fusion some values are in inch/min and I'm scared to test it in my machine.
Has anyone adopted this code for the metric system? Are there any updates?
