Hi everyone,
I've been running into a constant issue with my PRS Alpha table for the past couple days.
When doing a complex cut job i've noticed the machine will seem to 'nudge' work in either the X or Y axis someway through the job. Once it nudges the work (usually by about 5-10mm) it continues cutting with that offset the rest of the job. So one part is in the right place (initial cuts) then the rest of the work is offset.
It is unpredictable and happens at different times in the same cut job in either axes.
Does anyone have any idea why this would happen? or have any suggestions as to how to overcome this issue?
Currently my only solution is to just repeat the cut on new material hoping that it works.
I've attached some photos of work that shows correctly set work on the left and work thats been nudged on the right (you can see in the bottom right the pattern has cutover the border line when it shouldn't.
Any comments, thought or opinions are welcome and appreciated
Thanks,
Mark
P.S.
I know it's not the machine missing steps since PRS has a feedback loop with the motors.
