Shifting x & y position with cut & engraving jobs
Posted: Fri Jan 18, 2019 7:21 am
I'm having a great deal of trouble with the laser head shifting out of where it should be during vector jobs and engraving jobs due to what seems different reasons.
I've taken multiple different pathing scenarios to try to find a pattern. Each job was run between 2mm/s by up to 50 mm/s with the same results. The speed of the head while traveling was also reduced to 2mm/s to 50mm/s with no changes.
During the job cycle each square would shift up slightly, eventually resulting in the laser head to return to the origin above the original. Each job after would shift it up the exact same amount only along the y axis.
During the job cycle each square would shift to the right slightly, The return origin would be to the right of the original. each job had the exact same results.
During this job I changed the pathing to have alternating travel paths that moved diagonally. The results were however the exact same as the previous.
I also tried placing 48 of the exact same squares on top of each other. The result this time was each time the job was run it shifted an equal amount up & to the right
Here's my settings.
