# Block Macro Enhancements

For easier and faster programming.

Easier and faster programming thanks to advanced block Macros.

A block macro in woodWOP is used to store the Macros . Until now, multiplication was only possible in an orthogonal grid, i.e. n times in the X and m times in the Y direction. With the new enhancements, you have various multiplication methods at your disposal, such as multiplication via a position list, multiplication by an uneven series, and multiplication by a circular series.

### The advantages at a glance:

- Easier and faster programming, as many macros do not have to be programmed multiple times
- Reduced effort for changes
- Multiplication refers not only to holes, but to all macros in the block

  

A macro is a parameterizable machining module in woodWOP that describes CNC machining such as drilling, milling or sawing and contains the associated machining and tool data.

**woodWOP** is HOMAG's graphical CNC programming software for woodworking machines. It enables easy creation, editing, and optimization of machining programs through an intuitive user interface, and supports both standard and parametric CNC programming for flexible manufacturing processes.
