After testing everything we could think of, it turned out to be the Z axis motor. We replaced the motor and have had no problems since. Previously we had a dual router configuration and I think the excess weight of the routers put undue stress on the Z motor. We're cutting with a single router now, but when we go back to dual axis, I'll look into getting a spring or air cylinder to help support the weight and/or a bigger stepper motor. Thanks for all your suggestions! - Greg  |
