Workpiece origin (NC-Zero)

A workpiece origin combines a group of jobs and blanks and defines the CNC machine zero point by its position and orientation.

It is displayed as a coordinate system in the render window and can be defined using the positioning tools. The zero point, defined by the position of the object, applies to all jobs that are child elements in the project hierarchy within the workpiece origin object.

Multi-sided machining <PRO>

The ability to rotate the workpiece origin on any axis allows models to be machined from all sides.
