General Mach Discussion / Re: GOTO ZERO works for Y and Z, but X changes each time...
« on: June 27, 2019, 03:35:29 AM »
RESOLVED! So I did some testing.... using the pendant to move position on the Z was also changing the X!!!!!!!
I got the 6 axis SHINA via Amazon. "SHINA New CNC 6 Axis Wireless Mach3 MPG Pendant CNC Handwheel Manual Pulse Generator"
I loaded the standard macros etc and it seemed to work pretty good. But we could not get X to GOTO Zero at the same point every time. Then I finnally noticed that the X moved a little everytime the Z moved!!!!! THe more the Z moved, a little tiny more the X would move! But only with the pendant. Moves with the soft-pendant were fix, as was the G-Code programs I ran.
SHINA REALLY!?!?!?!?! I paid $130 for a true-6 Axis Pendent and was super excited to get it. The last pendant I bought for my huge CNC was $1200 from the OEM and it wasn't as nice.
Anyway, I'll look at the macros and see what is going on, or return it to Amazon's seller for a refund.
Arg!
