Thread: Axis Directions
Threaded View

I am getting a little confused as to the correct directions the table on my mill should move. If I figure correct on the x axis when inputing x+ the table should go to the left ie the work goes x+ and the same for the Y axis and the z axis will raise the head(more clearance to the work).
I am assuming that for a gantry mill or router x and y are reversed in the the work is stationary and the table moves. The z axis shoul be the same in both cases.
Or have I got it all wrong.
