Hello,
I'm fairly new on here and i've just purchased a Bridgeport R2e3 running Mach 3 software.
I've been using Sharpcam to write my programs and have managed to do a few things sucessfully.
However, when the program ends the machine runs into the Z axis limit switch. While this isn't really a big issue its annoying. It also does the same if there is a toolchange in the code.
The machine is fitted with what I believe to be a home and a limit switch at either end of the quill. When I "ref home" I don't have a problem and it hits the home switch with no hassle.
Is there a fix for this? I cannot work out if its a programming or mach 3 error.
I'm also looking for some 3d software and have a question about my Bijur oiller and how to adjust the amount of oil but i'll try and find the relevant sections.
Thanks for any help.
Regards
Ricky
