Well i turned it off and as I was afraid of it literally took me an hour to get the machine running without binding up again. So then I started cutting a file and halfway thru it the torch lifted up and shut off and finished the part as if it was on dry run. I went back and started from zero...

Are you sure its leaking or i it the splash over on the sides. If I look under mine you can see what looks like leaks under the side rails but it is actually where the water splashes over and drips between the side rails and the pan. There is no water proof seal there. using a flashlight you...

Should the Accumove be turned off at the end of every day? I typically turn off monitor, Plasma cutter, compressor, and shut down the VMD. I leave the Accumove on because the last time I turned it off it took half a day for it to start working again. any thoughts?

Worst case scenario is to cut one the desired size, shape, & angle out of cardboard and take a straight on pic of it. Import it as a jpeg pic and then trace the outline with the line tool. Discard the jpeg when done and resize to your desired size. generate the gcode and cut. Sometimes this...

I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one wandering why these problems aren't being fixed. I notice there are lots of people on the forum with the same issues that are all software related yet tech support seems to act like I am the first one to have that problem. I got my table in march and I...

I had that happen once when I was just learning the software. I have the machine in my shop with the VMD out there. I do all my designing and final G code in my office on another computer that is 300 feet away from my shop. I originally didn't know how to do the path functions correctly...

Yeah it cuts a real jagged circle. What I do is go back to zero and run the part on dry run right up to within a 1/2 " of where it stopped before. Hit stop and turn the dry run off and cut from there. Its a pain if its at the end of a real big part though.

I'm not sure what the problem is with the Accumove but it's scary for sure to know that the warranty runs out in two years. Mine started messing up after I had it about a month and continues to do the same things. I just sent my Accumove box back and they sent me a new one and right out of the...

When you get Fusion360 also get the add on called exact flat. You can scan in a frontal pic of a truck or jeep and build your bumper in 3D on the vehicle then send it to exact flat and it will create accurate templates from your 3D drawing that you can then save as a DXF and import and convert...
