    radial pocket is not really round !

    hi,
    I think my X or Y has a problem.
    when I cut circle pocket I have no problem, may be is not repeat cut.
    but twhen I cut using Radial Pocket, is not really round, it's like loosing step.
    I use step motor btw.
    using mach 3
    been using this machine like 2 years, now I have a problem ..

    when I use Dial Indicator, like moving the x0 and x 50 and x0 and x50 repeat..
    I found the x is not really coming to zero.

    how to check which is the problem ?
    the step motor or other ?

    thank you
    ruddy
