3D taster use with CNC12

Post by Black Forest »

Does a 3D taster have any use with CNC? I use mine to locate the edges on X and Y and top surface of my material. This would be in a home shop not a production shop. Just one offs and such. Maybe making a flange with a bolt circle pattern, etc..

3D Taster is better than nothing, but a 3D Probe and Z-Finder with swissis App makes live much more easy, and speeds up the time to start making chips
