I have a 12” x 12” board on my machine, and I am doing the normal Jog function to set my x and Y zeros , left front corner as I have done hundreds of times. Remove the bit zero and machine does the function of setting the Z zero. Load the file and hit start, and the spindle moves to a position about 15 to 20 inches right of where it should start the carve. I have tried several times to reset zeros without success
Any one have an idea??
Where is the origin set in the file?
Where is the first toolpath set relative to the origin?
Usually, this sort of problem is caused by a mismatch between job setup:
and how origin is set relative to the stock:
Upload the file?
First, try using the ‘Rapid’ movements on the Jog page. Pick “Move to current X-Y”, and see if it goes where you expect.
If it does, then we need to see your file.
If it doesn’t, then time to dig further, perhaps a mechanical problem.
