General Mach Discussion / Re: Sqauring the Axis

Hi JollyCNCuser,
You must consider that we are (for the most part) unpaid volunteers here so please be patient when waiting for a reply to a question posted on the forum.
I have never had to use formula axis correction so can't offer any help in that direction.
However, if you are having an 'out of squareness' issue then the best solution would be to correct the inaccuracy of your machine. If, for some reason this cannot be done then it may be possible for you to use the Local System Rotate function. If your squareness error is constant then just entering the angle will provide the compensation.
I tackled a changeable or unknown squareness issue using a similar solution http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,22932.0.html
Hope this helps.
