Backwards "Epic Fail"

[zfisher]

First official project turned into an EPIC FAIL. I am having problems with the shopbot, I designed an address plaque on artcam and when I went to cut it the numbers were mirrored. What was supposed to read 1320, read 0231 and mirrored to the left. Is this something in the shopbot software that is causing this?:confused:

...it only does what it is told to do...

Did you happen to put a neg sign in the yellow fill in box? I will preview the cut running it through the Shopbot preview

You had to have had something set wrong in Artcam.
In order to evaluate it properly you should contact your reseller.
There is not enough information on how you created the design and/or the toolpath here to comment other than new users are always advised to test in cheap material before they cut expensive goods.

In the "Bizarro world" this would be perfect. What does the preview show you? Depending on how much experiece you have with AC maybe you were looking at the backside of the model? Maybe post a screenshot?

I've had this a few times, most likely one of the motors ,probably X needs to be reversed. either by swapping a couple of the motor wires or in software setup. of the "dir" signal

Just tell them that it's for the back of the house. ;)
