Re: How do you verify missed steps? (Probably something basic Im missing here in Mach
Zero on a location and drill a hole with a ball tip end mill in a collet or pilot drill to indicate on.
Run a program in the air.
Click the go to zero button after a hour of running and re indicate the hole.
You should be within .003" or so.
Heat will cause some change but anything over ,008" is not from heat but loosing steps or slipping couplers or end bearings. Do a backlash test while your at it.
