don't know if this is the right form or not but when I am engraving acrylic or wood while it is doing a pocket of a large area the z axis seem do dip down a few thousandths for a few lines . so what is happening on a big pocket is I end up with a deeper line in some areas.
any help would be appreciated
z axis has a 5 start acme screw with antibacklash nut . stepper motor . no play or flex on the slides.
Thanks again
William
