General Mach Discussion / dro and gcode don't match
« on: July 21, 2011, 11:16:24 PM »
While trying to fix another issue I happend to notice that the dro doesn't match the gcode when I stop the program during a run. They are all off by a small amount. A search of the web only turned up a suggestion to check backlash settings. I have backlash compensation turned off so I don't think that's my problem.
I did some air runs of old jobs and now see that those files had dro / gcode mismatch as well. The pieces cut fine, but I cut artwork not jet engine components and I don't measure the finished project.
Is this normal behavior for Mach? Is a setting(s) I should be checking?
Thanks.
