Hello,
I’m having issue running my first job. I followed the step to making the coaster video on CC. I can’t figure it out.
My steps
I jog to center of material and lowered bit to top of material and set zero and then this pops up. I clicked the set current location.
Then it does its thing with bit setter and moves back to center of material.
load job and click run. Then this pops up.
Here is the program size.
Is this a design issue or motion issue or both. I’m lost. Thanks
If you move the tool outside of the job & jog down, does the tool reach the table?
It does not… Guess I need to lower the spindle.
I adjusted my spindle and prompted to run. Still get a pop up saying zero didn’t set like before. Wouldn’t start right away so I hit run again and the machine moved the spindle came on, but running extremely slow and the machine moved to the back right of material and started cutting, More like dragging the bit in the material.
If you mean the spindle was not up to speed when it started cutting, try starting the tool a ways from the start point. i.e. the start point is in the upper right portion of the job, so jog the X axis a couple feet to the left before starting. Hopefully that gives the spindle enough time to get up to full speed. They really need to allow a stop command (M0) or delay/dwell (G04) after the spindle on.
I’ll give that a try in the morning. You would think the machine would go to rpm speed before doing anything else. Thanks for the help.
