Deformed shapes
« on: February 10, 2016, 09:26:05 AM »
Hi
I'm Daniel, just registered
I've got Chinese CNC router 2030 using Mach3 software , and still learning how to use it
But I have an issue, that is the reason I have registered my self today.
I use Artcam Express to create shapes, but when I load G codes, (even examples in Mach3 ) and start the router it's engraving deformed shapes, "Y" direction stretched.
Wandering if anyone can help me solve that.
Thanks
Best regards

Your steps/unit is probably set wrong for the Y xis.

Go to YouTube and search for axis calibration.
