I was in an exhibition few weeks ago and I was watching bending press in action and the thing I do not understand, is why do You want to have 2 catches? If I understand correctly, catch is the part, against which the operator positions the edge of the part, so that the bend is done in exact distance from the catch - material edge, which is held against the catch. So why do You need 2 of them? To bend two different parts together? > And yes, both catches can collide. (which has to be rejected by the machine) The only way I see is some limit switches on the edges of catch on those sides, where they can collide. And that would be just an "avoid the consequences of mistake" measure, since it would stop catches, but would not fix the wrong commands in the g-code. Recently there was a discussion on similar topic - the only way to limit certain axis/joints is min_limit and max_limit in INI file. Unfortunately it is not possible to create some "map", where the limits for X would change in accordance to Y position, e.g., if Y is in 0, then X limits are 0 and 20, but if Y is in 30, then X limits are 0 and 50. > anyway, Thanks for all your answers, I will have to look if I can use > abc for linear motions and do a G1 z1,c1,w2 together at defined speed. > I think the best way would be to do a simulation first. Could, You, please report of Your success? I am thinking about something similar - using A, B and C for linear axis - so I would like to know, how EMC handles that.
