Just finished, firmware weird

Troubleshooting

I ran 2 experiments and took the cutting out of the equation, by removing the bit and leaving the router off. I did add additional blocking on the left hand side of the workpiece just in case.

The first experiment was to remove the “inlay carving” from the tool path. I duplicated the original setup in Fusion 360, then deleted the first contouring action. The file ran smoothly and didn’t appear to have the jerkiness on the left hand vertical.

The second experiment was to rerun the original nc file. It successfully duplicated the behavior. I also noticed the below error messages in the console.

[MSG:WARN: Motor current on Bottom Right axis exceeded threshold of 4000]

Please let me know if the 2 nc files would be helpful to further trouble shoot.

This is super helpful, thank you!

What is going on here is that the top left and bottom right belts are fighting each-other for some reason and as one is able to pull harder than the other you get that zig-zag pattern.

I’m not totally sure why they are fighting like that. The simplest solution is that the anchor point locations aren’t quite right and running calibration could help get more precise locations for them.
