My sizes are out

[dazp1976]

On the ddscv it's steps per mm

I have 8 microsteps
so 8*200/10 (1610's) for X&Y 160
320 for Z (1605)

Just double checked this is definitely what they are set to.

AM882 has fault protection it should detect missing steps and estop and I swapped all the couplings for these style, I bought the chunkier ones.



so they're rated twice the nm of the motors.

2 4nm in the bottom and 3nm on the gantry, PSU is 70v and 1kva.

Will try and cut 3 holes at 33mm, 66mm and 99mm see if the error scales perfectly I tried cutting from speed of 0.5m/min to 10m/min exactly the same results.

Carved a lot of 3d stuff on this machine and that's machining for hours not seeing issues there or sign making never noticed the size was wrong until I tried to make an adapter and it didn't fit.

Both X&Y are out by the same amount not sure about the Z.

The numbers are really only to get you in the ball park. There's always a slight error on the screws.
Mine is similar on circles. I end up about 0.1mm too small so I just tweek my drawings to suit the machine. I add 0.1mm to inner circles such as do a 32mm as a 32.1mm.
Then outer edges I add 0.05mm on each end (or I can set my stock to leave 0.05mm instead).

This will give you a rough idea on methods of how to increase accuracy using Mach calibration. Or at least to check how close your machine is to see if that is the problem.
