07:12 AM jepler: seb_kuzminsky: thanks for the review
09:03 AM RamCNC-dev: Hello everybody. I have a little question
09:04 AM RamCNC-dev: Can I use the linuxcnc to control of a punch machine?
09:05 AM RamCNC-dev: Specifically of Edel micromat 205 hs
09:08 AM RamCNC-dev: If anibody could help me. I would be grateful with you :)
09:28 AM archivist: I should think so, iirc someone has retrofitted a punch some while ago
10:05 AM cradek: there's nothing special about a punch except for the punching, and that can be triggered in gcode several ways
10:06 AM cradek: however you choose to trigger the punch cycle, you'd need to inhibit further motion until the punch is done
10:08 AM archivist: only other thing I can think of is motion blending, use exact stop mode
10:29 AM cradek: that's a good idea
11:22 AM skunkworks: can't wait to get time to play with the external offset
12:07 PM cradek: hey stuart!
12:11 PM Tom_itx: what are the external offsets for if i might ask... plasma mainly?

12:29 PM seb_kuzminsky: dgarr's docs do talk about plasma thc
12:29 PM seb_kuzminsky: and jog-while-paused
12:31 PM seb_kuzminsky: and turning of polygons on an XZC machine, by offsetting X according to the C angle
12:32 PM jepler: boy norbert's e-mail client + github issues really don't get along do they
12:52 PM Tom_L: that looks very useful
