General Mach Discussion / Machine goes to Z zero at start of a program
« on: April 18, 2020, 10:37:48 AM »
Quick question guys. Just went to help a friend with his machine running Mach3. We cut a piece of acrilyc in a jig and when we started the cut the machine went to zero on the Z putting a whole right through the part. This happened every time.
The cuts after i jogged the machine to a location away from the part before starting. It zeroed on the Z but at least didn't damage the part. Later on the machine would do the same thing now instead of the z going to zero it would go about .5" below zero.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
