Hi,
What you're doing is fantastic. The installation is going well.
The simulations show great potential. Congratulations!
If I may make a point, looking at the video, I think it's better if the horizontal drilling unit
descends when it reaches its position. In the video, you can see it descending and then reaching its position.

That's just my opinion.

Thanks and congratulations again!

Thanks and congratulations again!  Hi,Thank you for the kind words and for the sharp observation!Regarding the horizontal drilling unit: you are absolutely right. In the video, the Z and X/Y axes are moving simultaneously for speed. However, NativeCAM allows full control over the sequence.In the final setup, we can easily configure the G-code to ensure the unit reaches its target position before starting the descent. Safety and precision are the priorities, and this is exactly why LinuxCNC + NativeCAM is so powerful—we can tweak these movements to fit the specific mechanics of the machine perfectly.Thanks again for the feedback, it’s very much appreciated!"
