    hi guys i really hope you can help me with this one.
    i keep on trying to mill a sign or an 3d object but i keep having the same issue when ever i select my home position on my material this being wood when i load the file in to universal gcode sender pus run or send my machine starts running and mooving to its first position as it should but every time it plunges deep as far as it can go in to the wood it cant moove because of how deep its gone and burns the wood , no matter what i do it happens all the time so HEELLLLP! please

    Sounds like you need to take multiple passes. This will be dependant on your CAM software. Also CAM software often has a simulated preview that is worth watching before hitting the send as it can show these things up.

    Due to covid19 the crystal ball has lost it sheen.

    So how about giving some specs about the machine, what controller and the top few lines of the gcode.

    It would also help with a couple of pics would be nice as well

    Fusion 360 is your CAD and cam software the controller could be mach3 or something else and what does your machine look like and how about posting your g code.

    Ok
    Where and how do you touch off the part ie. at the bottom or the top and are you doing the same in fusion360 you generally touch off at the top off the part and that should be Z0.

    Also when you jog the Z axis down dose the DRO go more -ve or +ve ie. generally the Z should go -ve when going down.

    I have never used grbl.

    Also in the code you are using a ball nose cutter for a pocket you should be using an endmill . This is nothing to do with your problem though

    T thanks again Clive I hope i dont get to be a pain with this. where you see thhe burn mark on the wood im bringing z to within a paper thickness for my zero i dont quite understand about touch off and the -ve when going down sorry i am disabled on alot of meds which causes me very bad memory so i have to wright alot down, my x is along the length of the material and y is the width, sometimes though it seems as if the z axis travels too far because when it lifts out of the wood it trvels almost to the top of its wall.
    Kind regards. Colin

    I am not familiar with your controller. Touch off means that you jog down to the top of the part and then press the touch off button this should then set the DRO (readout) to zero.

    Does the controller have a DRO . Can you post a picture of the controller?

    Perhaps somebody can chime in to help
