Process workflow for the Oxyfuel Workspace
Operator Moves the Torch to Plate Surface and Zeros the Plate
Operator moves the Torch up and starts Oxy Manually
Rapid move to pierce location ↓
Move torch to Preheat height ↓
Wait for programmed preheat time ↓
Open cutting oxygen - spare relay tiggers↓
Wait for pierce completion ↓
Begin lead-in at creep speed ↓
Accelerate to normal cutting speed ↓
Follow programmed contour ↓
Close cutting oxygen at contour end ↓
Rapid move to next contour , process to start again.
Great idea. I can knock this out quickly because it's a fork of the Plasma workspace. Do you know what torch this cutting chart corresponds too and is there any other torches we should support right away?

The Oxyfuel workspace is built and will be in the next pre-release for testing.
It follows the cycle you laid out, end to end: rapid to the pierce location → move to preheat height → dwell for the programmed preheat time → open cutting oxygen on a configurable relay M-code → dwell for pierce → lead-in at creep speed → accelerate to cut speed → follow the contour → close cutting oxygen at the end → rapid to the next pierce.
What you'll find in it:
Two things I'd like your eyes on when you run it:
Still want that Harris torch part number when you get a chance. I'll add it as a second cut-chart preset alongside Victor rather than replacing it, so you can pick whichever matches the torch on the machine.
