I have been re-powering a Plasma table recently, at the stage of first test cut, starting to get the hang of things now,
Im using Sheetcam for the post processing and running Mach3.
I have got the Z axis zeroing perfectly when using MDI in mach 3, (g31 z-100 f200) and then (g92 z0),
but I am having a strange issue when running the program where after zeroing the z axis off the material, the torch then seems to stay about 10mm higher than it should at the pierce and cut heights as well as the rapids heights.
I did do a bit of copy pasting of the G31 top of material routine from one post processor into another that is supposed to be for my torch height controller (Razordance THC), so it is possible i have added something i shouldn't in the post processor code.
Unless there is a tool offset setting somewhere else in sheetcam or mach3 that i have overlooked?
Also I am running the program without the THC clicked on in mach3 and the plasma cutter switched off, so just a dry run, not sure if that would cause the strange offset?
cheers for any help!!
