Hi, sorry if this has been posted before, I couldn't find an answer to my problem here hence the new post. I hope someone can help me.
I have a chinese laser machine and it's started to "jump". It will start engraving a line of text and then about halfway through it kind of moves an inch or so to the left to continue with the rest of the line so half the word is in one place and the other bottom half of the same word is an inch to the left.
I've been advised to clean the mirrors etc and I ensured the water was topped up and the runner that the laser was on was oiled and it stopped for a week or so but now it's doing it again so not sure if the cleaning was a coincidence or if it needs a deep clean or something.
We are based in Andover in Hampshire (UK) and are looking either for some advice on what to do or for a local engineer who might be able to come out and have a look. Any ideas would be welcome.
I hope you can help and thank you for your time in reading this.
