Title: A question on Z axis direction
Post by: michel-cnc on February 15, 2012, 02:04:33 PM

Hello !
I have finished with the mechanical part of my CNC; i have read the Mach3 documentation.
I have a question about the Z-axis (there is a joined file to explain the problem).

thank you !

Either change the Z axis in Mach3 so -Z is down, or change the MeshCAM post to reverse the Z values.
