Re: Torch Not firing during Test fire

Hello Mark Just Loaded your report and (Torch On) in not assigned to any output in the Wizard. That would explain the torch not firing. :D No Output Assigned.png If you followed Schematic S15107 than assign (Torch ON) to Output 2 in The Wizard's Output menu. Mark Torch ON.png Should be a quick fix

Re: instaled THC now loosing steps

Can you throw up some pictures of the same job when you're prescribing it and then when you're cutting with the plasma?. I'd like to see the difference between the two

Re: instaled THC now loosing steps

Loosing a lot of steps when that torch is on, WOW.

I would try shielding the motor cables, and possibly move the torch cable out away from the motor cables

Re: Inaccuracy issue

All of my motors are close loop steppers / hybrid servo Nema 34 12nm. I can post a fresh report but I don't think that is relevant because the whole machine moves correctly and accurate including the y3 of the tube cutter. I thought the point of the post and what you show in the video is that the g...

Re: Inaccuracy issue

Attach a fresh report please.
What motors and drives do you have?

Getting the Extra 5th axis is a little un orthodox. Can you explain how this is done?

Possibly take a clear video showing how you turn the Gantry off and turn the Pipe axes on.
