Here is one way i have done it with a program where i machine some blocks on an indexer on a jig, to machine all 3 faces handy when you have more than work offsets stored in the control, if your programmers used to fanuc and used the G52 its pritty similar in some points i guess...
(SET G54 X) #54=135.299 ( value from machine absolute to part zero) (BLOCKS with spacing from master zero) #1=#54 #2=[#54+60] #3=[#54+120] #4=[#54+180] #5=[#54+240] #6=[#54+300] (25mm) O0029 SUB G90 G00 X-14.572 Y38.2 G01 Z51.6 F1500.
