I can switch to a smaller workpiece (6"x6"). Is that size supported? Also, my understanding of Hall effect sensors is that the potential difference in the sensor circuit crosses the detection threshold when the magnetic field direction is perpendicular to that of the sensor semiconductor circuit. In YouTube videos I see that the home button face is perpendicular to the default resting position of the B table top. So, the sensor circuit orientation should be parallel to the magnetic field emanating from a magnetic chuck mounted on top of the B table in the default resting position and hence should not interfere with the sensor operation. Is this understanding correct? If that is the case a magnetic chuck should still be usable if the machine is programmed to hold the B table in the default resting position when it seeks the home button.
Thanks,
