General Mach Discussion / Text out of Line - Picture included!
« on: December 14, 2013, 09:03:15 AM »
Hi,
I have an ebay 3040 cnc machine - in general it works fine, however been experiencing wonky lettering. The machine seems to be pushing itself out of line when cutting.
The output display looks fine - its not wonky, and I have re-made the gcode in VCarve and still the same issue. I ran this SUPER slow took 4+ hours to get this far and it's still wonky.
What could be causing it to go out of line like this? Would backlash comp help?
