NEW: ProbeIt for Mach3 and Mach4!
The full ProbeIt touch-probe program (originally only for use with UCCNC), is now available for Mach3 and Mach4 as ProbeItM3 and ProbeItM4. Same probing routines, 3D viewer and G-code editor as the UCCNC version, with perimeter tracing, 3D surface scanning, DXF/CSV recording, a 3D viewer and a G-code editor with ‘auto-leveler’ capability. Download the free 45-day demo and see them in action.
Also new: CamCopyM3 for Mach3 and CamCopyM4 for Mach4!
The UCamCopy camera-based edge tracing, now for Mach3 and Mach4. Trace 2D profiles with a webcam instead of a touch probe and record them to DXF. $30 with a free 20-day demo.
CraftyCNC provides tools for the hobby machinist interested in probing or reverse engineering items on their CNC mill or router.
In addition to ProbeIt for use with touch probes (as a UCCNC plugin, as a program for Mach3 or Mach4, or as the original Mach3 wizard), we currently provide a number of other useful plugins for UCCNC.
The original ProbeIt is a wizard for Mach3 that allows for some CMM like functionality, including probe tip calibration/compensation and recording direct to DXF or CSV data files! The UCCNC version takes that original functionality and builds additional features!
Note: ProbeIt for UCCNC has many more features than ProbeIt Wizard for Mach3, which is limited by being a macro based plugin. The UCCNC version includes a viewer, point cloud and rotary axis features, and a few other items the Mach3 version does NOT have. ProbeItM3 and ProbeItM4 are the same program as the UCCNC version, with the same probing routines, viewer and G-code editor. The one exception is Jog Probing, which is only in the UCCNC version. They effectively obsolete the original ProbeIt Wizard version.
ProbeIt for UCCNC, a more powerful plugin version of ProbeIt, written in .NET!
Plugins for UCCNC
ProbeIt for UCCNC, a plugin that provides a touch-probe based probing solution (similar to ProbeIt for Mach3, but now for UCCNC and far more powerful. Copy 2D profiles and surfaces to DXF, CSV, and point clouds! )
UCamCopy for UCCNC, a plugin that provides a video camera based probing solution. Similar to ProbeIt, but non-contact and visual based! Copy 2D profiles to DXF and CSV files.
XBox 360 plugin, Velocity control with sticks, customizable buttons, and more. Available in a basic free version, and a Pro version with many features for a small license cost.
ProbeCloud plugin, 3D surface digitizing to a CSV file, with contained boundary shape to minimize wasted time!
UCEmailer plugin, Have UCCNC send you an email when it is done or if something happens!
Touch Probes are compatible with all major CNC controls (UCCNC, Mach3, Mach4, LinuxCNC, etc), and are simple to use with a two wire interface to connect to your breakout board. These probes are small, and ideal for your small bench-top machines
