just wanted to get some feedback on an issue we are having with an older partner 5 mill.
As a simple test, i cut a circle in a piece of aluminum. Measured x, and y. X results are exactly what they should be. Y results are out by about .005 - .006" smaller
i thought it could possibly be backlash, so i changed this setting with no change in results.
What is odd is that i can pick up two edges off a known width and the machine reports the number exactly.
I guess its an issue when the machine is under load? Thrust bearings?
Any ideas on where to look would be great :rainfro:
