I am new to the Altmill brand and I just purchased the Altmill 4x4 with the 1.5 spindle. I was looking into the possibility of getting an automatic Z-Probe touch plate sensor but I’m not sure what would be compatible with my configuration. Any guidance and even links would be greatly appreciated!

@JAuthement Did you mean something like this: [AutoZero Touch Plate | Sienci Labs](https://sienci.com/product/autozero/)

Or another type of probe?

@JAuthement Sorry, can’t help you since I never used one. If you search on this forum for “toolsetter”, “tool setter”, “bit setter”, etc, you will get some hits. I know they are used, especially with people who have an ATC.
