Welcome to the forum. Thank you for the Report.

Can you please attach the Gcode jobs you are running when the Z locks up. I want to see the Gcode job you a using.

You best chance at having a working Plasma table with the Acorn is to Download and install Acorn Plasma software. Your current software is Acorn mill.

Download the Latest 5.08 software to install Acorn Plasma. https://centroidcnc.com/centroid_diy/ce ... loads.html

I understand you may not want to switch to the Plasma software because you would need a plasma license And the Acorn Already has a Mill pro license.
