    X stops moving.

    Hi,

    I have noticed that my table stops moving in X travel and if I bump the stepper motor it moves again. Any ideas?

    Thanks
    Tom

    I assume you mean before it hits the limit switch Are you using the jogger or the keyboard. Sometimes using the jogger mine will stop, but it is not the machine I am simply not pressing the key on the jogger straight down, so it breaks contact from time to time.
