Need HELP. Hi My name is Vaughn and I live in Alberta Canada, I have been using a CNC plasma cutter for a few years in a high school setting. We use Mach 3 and Lazy Cam with Corel Draw to get our images. I have a Precision Metal CNC Plasma Table, blue in colour.
The problem I have is that the CNC machine no longer cuts accurately, seems to drift over after making several turns. Still cuts out basic shapes pretty accurately but as soon as I try to cut out something more complex, it starts to drift off of the path. I have tried calibrating several times. Would this be a stepper motor problem? or something else.
Thanks for your help
