Was cutting a sign yesterday. It cut good, started second sign and half way through. It would pierce and throw an error. Tried it 3 times and noticed my live voltage dropped down to 10.3 voltage.
I am running a lap top not plug up to charge, ground clamp on material, air pressure at 73 PSI. also, changed out to new consumables when I started having problems. I have cleaned the Z axis twice and when I try to cut a small part. Live voltage will run at 20.0 voltage. I have looked through the forum and can’t find much help with my problem. Any help will be mu appreciated.
What are your results after actual troubleshooting?
What are you running, how are you wired?
Bit of missing information.
I am running Everlast 62I, raw voltage straight to the lugs inside the machine

The VMI box has failed? That could be the problem. Follow the raw voltage checks on the thread above. Please don’t touch the leads while testing. The process is straight forward.
Email Langmuir in the morning. It looks like you have done all the correct checks.
I kind of thought that, will do the voltage check tomorrow after work.
I appreciate the help

make sure the USB port on the control box is not touching the cover. You can either take the cover off and put a shim under the board to space it out more, or use a piece of paper as a insulator to keep the USB from touching the cover when connected.

I did all the testing in the above, it still had low live voltage. I put a piece of paper between the USB port and the controller case and it fixed the problem.
I appreciate all the help.
Thanks Tolbert.

Great to hear. Maybe some electrical tape or enlarge the hole. That was making a ground loop.
That’s why they don’t ground the control box.
The right way is shim out the control board .0625.
Known issue and langmuir still has not tweaked the design with the manufacturer of the housing.
Likewise with the DB9 connectors needing washers installed be the end user.
Or they had 10k made up and are still working through inventory.

Or they designed it in Fusion and can’t figure out how to edit it…
