there are a couple of reasons for misaligned cuts…
- motor couplers are often the problem…you need a good flashlight to see if they slipping…tighten them up.
- if your gantries are not free and smooth then it strains the motor and coupler and they could slip… firecontrol does not know if it binds or not…so even a little bind, the program will move forward but the cut does not follow.
- if you do not have torch height control and your tip possibly touches the work piece ic can shift the workpiece just a bit to cause misalignment
- just like tip drag…a small pice can tip up and get bumped by the torch…moving the work piece also
