depth of cut issues
Posted: Wed 22 Jan , 2014 13:10 pm
I have a mrc 40 / compact 1000.
I am a dt technician and our IT technician has produced a program to cut out some shapes.
I have the machine set to metric. The board we use is 6mm thick
IT guy says he has asked it to cut 1.5mm each time over a thickness of 6mm. so 1.5 3.0 4.5 6.0 pass until it is all cut out.
What the machine is actually doing is 1.5 2.0 3.0 2.0 4.5 2.0 6.0. so not always cutting just moving around.
is this something anyone else has encountered? machine error ? human error?
any help would be great as it would certain speed it up a bit
