Have you got the tool compensation hard coded into the GCode or does Mach3 have built in compensation?

+Christian Lewis Mach 3 have this option in Tool Offsets. When I hit Auto Tool Zero (after tool-change) Mach3 remember tool height offsets and store them...

+Arman As So if you tell the machine to rotate the C axis by any amount, it will automatically compensate for the radius that the tool would make by moving the linear axes around so that the bottom of the tool always follows the tool path?

+Christian Lewis Not for radius, only for tool height. All major toolpath creation operations doing in Powermill, also many options programmed in PM Postprocessor...

+Arman As Okay, thank you so much for the quick reply. I'm currently writing a macro for Mach4 that interprets non-compensated G Code and applies compensation on-the-fly so the G Code is more universal. Progress is going very well.
