Hi, I’m new to the X-Carve machine.
Now, I’m working on cutting a square.
I have succesfully cut one square frame without problems,
but now X-Carve machine always goes off the path at certain point.
As you see the photo above, the most above line there, that’s the starting line.
From there, the bit goes right to left, left to bottom, bottom to right bottom, and path goes off when bit goes right bottom to right top. when it’s about to complete square, it doesn’t go all the way up to make a complete square. I don’t know what the problem is.
I don’t think this is the problem of Easel settings because, I have successfully cut out one square
without problems like an hour ago. But I’m not sure why now this machine gives me path off with settings are same like before.
Please give me a hand and lemme know how to fix this.
Thanks in advance, cheers!
Changes
I’m cutting 12mm thick MDF, and my cutting settings were Feed Rate: 1100mm/Min, Plunge Rate: 228.6mm/Min, and Depth per Pass:3mm.
Now I changed this setting less aggressive, Feed Rate: 1000mm/Min, Plunge Rate: 228.6mm/Min, and Depth per Pass: 1.6mm.
It looked better than before, still had some issues. But it was bearable path off.
But all of sudden, bit went to unexpected route that I didn’t even intend to cut.
Here is the my drawing and results.
There’s the line above the most bottom line that I didn’t intend to cut.
The machine made a weird rough sound and went like that.
I urgently turned off the machine.
Should I lower the settings more? Or these are the other problems?
Thanks.
