Mach3 and G-Rex / Mach3 Turn X Axis issue

« on: October 19, 2016, 01:30:38 PM »

Hi all,

I'm relatively new on here and am after a little help.

I run a small machining business from home and have just purchased a Denford Orac CNC Lathe running on Mach3.

Z Axis runs perfectly and is bang on size wise, but the X Axis is way out and doesn't seem to repeat at all.

It was converted over last winter by the chap I bought it from and it has never really been used by him.

Any ideas on how to sort the problem, the solutions probably staring me in the face but I just can't see it!

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

General Mach Discussion / Mach 3 problem help needed

« on: July 16, 2013, 03:16:27 PM »

Hi all I'm new here and could do with a little help
I recently purchased a small milling machine equipped with mach 3
I've been using the machine manually with no problems, however today I imported a dxf file from autocad, loaded the g code and when I run the program I have found
that the actual movement of the machine is greater than the movement shown on the DRO.
Mach 3 is not something i'm used to, could this be a simple problem or something more serious, any help would be greatly appreciated.
