Avenger
Z-Reader Probe- The Z-Reader probe is used to map the surface. You can control it manually or programmatically. It is not active during cutting and can be retracted to keep it out of harm's path. You can trigger it to check the surface at each pierce before cutting begins. Or, you could use it to drive the surface mapping of the entire part. It starts with the initialization of the device to the surface at program start. The difference is then accumulated or tracked.
Auto Standoff - This is a surface standoff, and should not be confused in any way with vector standoff using 5-axis mode. Auto stand-off will adjust vertically according to the angle of "A" Axis. There are five (5) axis that are considered during calculations. The machine can be controlled manually using buttons on its screen to make the vector standoff change.
