    Comp for warped table

    I have a fadal VMC4020 and it's a great machine but I've noticed recently that the right side of the table is sitting roughly 0.003" lower than the rest of the table. Center and left read the same. Is there a way to comp for the warping or is a subplate the only way to fix the issue?

    Thanks,

    Matt

    Check your strap gibs, if OK pull the table and check your ways. When the table is off flip it over and inpect the wear Turcite pads.
