I have an X2 mini-mill converted to cnc using a cncfusion kit. I have not used it in a while, and decided to spend a little time on it, and while cutting a 1.75 cube, I noticed all wall finishes are great, except when going Y+, that side is kind of choppy. I am guessing it is either the gibbs, or the lovejoy coupling? My X has one of the zero backlash couplings, but the Y still has the lovejoy coupling. My question is why is it only going one direction?
PS,
I tried different feeds/speeds, DOC, ect and same thing happens.
thanks for anyone responding who may have had the same problem and found the cause allowing me to spend less time troubleshooting, and more time cutting.
Merry Christmas
