G-Code Rotation

Hello,

I was wondering if Carbide3d has a feature to use an edge finder or a dowel pin (mounted to the spindle collet) to find an offset angle of a double-sided part?

To give an example:
-2 sided operation

  • first side machine all complete
    -flip to other side
    -probe with the part is orientated

Here is a video to better clarify with what I’m trying to achieve.
I’m trying to stick to this method since it provides so much more accuracy.
I’m also looking to see if its possible to implement a 3d probe with the shapeoko 5 pro.

I don’t believe that CC or CM has the ability to pick up a skewed angle.
Here is a possible reference for a two sided part https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViVkQIEvRiw
Hope this helps.
