Hello to all. I'm a new Mach3Turn user and I finally got all my settings and calibrations done. My motor tuning turned out fine and extended testing show no lost steps and my travel is correct. I run a 4.500" OD Disc on my spindle, with a single notch of 0.250" wide. My spindle speed in Mach3 is dead on as verified with a photo tach and is steady.
I'm sure I'm overlooking a setting somewhere, but my problem is that my threads that are cut (Using simple threading wizard) come out really bad, as in no threads. The first past is correct, the seconds pass seems like it's 180 out because the threads are between the first set of threads. The third pass pretty much takes all the threads off. The fourth pass looks like it's correct and so on. I end up with the final finish looking like a metal file !!!
Can anyone give me ideas where to look in order to correct this please?
Richard
