General Mach Discussion / Mach3 Starting to behave erratically!
« on: January 07, 2017, 09:07:48 AM »
HELP! We are half through our biggest job (600 sheets of 18mm ply) and Mach 3 is starting to behave erratically.
There are 2 symptoms:
1) The 2 X drive stepper motors appear to go out of sync when returning to fixture zero causing the X carriage to jerk violently and derail.
2) Intermittently, starts cutting a file too early (ie short of X destination) on the X axis all the while making bad noise??
Can anyone help this operator. This happens about every 4th sheet?
Look forward to any suggestions. Thanks.
