Re: Centroid and Waterjet Cutting – Dual Head Support


Hi everyone,

I’m not sure if I’m posting in the right forum, but I’m trying to find out whether Centroid software supports waterjet cutting systems—and more specifically, if it can handle a dual-head waterjet setup.

If it does, could someone point me in the right direction? I’d like to know ...

Re: Centroid and Waterjet Cutting – Dual Head Support

Am I wrong or doesn't Centroid have a customer that is a waterjet OEM using centroid? I may be wrong but Im almost positive. Is it flow?

Re: Alternatives to TD2211 touch screen


Noted not to let the wife weld or grind near the screen :D


Lol, I was thinking that this was still in the Plasma section. Not that Id weld or grind on in but, that will be far more forgiving spraying it Piercing some 2" plate. The thicker the plate the more volcanic reaction you recieve! :lol ...

Re: MessageBox

Thanks, Yes Ive already used M222. What Im looking for is not requiring the keyboard. Just click or push yes or ok on Msgbox. This would be for something like if you press zero positions to get confirmation that it is intentional.

Re: acorn board communications error after update


i dont have another one to try, would hate to order one and it be the board lol.


You can pickup one local, just get a sheilded Cat5E with metal cover over the RJ45. Or just use a standard ethernet cable to test and see if that is the problem. If so go buy a new one.

Did you set the ethernet ...

Re: Kerf Compensation??

Thanks, The G0 line doesnt exist. Thats just my comment to add on N00002 and end of first G1 after M61.
So does it ignore G41-2 at this point? Or will it work with a value in the program?

Re: Alternatives to TD2211 touch screen


Is Projected Capacitive (PCAP) the new tech for POS screens, or Infra red? It seems they are now the most common touch screen tech, resistive seems obsolete. I've been thinking of this one perhaps:
