Hi, Relatively new to this and I'm having an issue when I go to cut my part. Its essentially a cube and after the facing operation the toolpath for the 2d pocket is shifted relative to the actual desired path/stock as per the dashed line in the attached drawing. Basically the path is moving with a negative x and positive y offset from the desired one relative to the 0,0,0 point.
Autodesk confirmed the Gcode and toolpaths seem ok so what could cause a lateral shift in the toolpath?
I've tried moving the facing operation to the end of the sequence and increased the Z point by +60mm up just in case the previous operation was the cause.
It's using an 8mm diameter cutter on my DIY mill with Mach 3. If I stop the run and move the tool back to G0 X0 Y0 it moves to the correct point so its not lost steps.
Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
James
