Hi all,
I have a eumach 1000 machine with a heidenhain Itnc 530 controller. When I machine a square pocket, the X axis dimension is 0.04mm to 0.05mm smaller than the Y axis. We have just gone through calibration with a laser interferometer, and found the greatest error to be about 0.008mm. A similar problem occurs when machining a circular pocket. Any thoughts on what could be causing these errors? I tend to think this is a software issue as our calibration results are pretty good.
Thanks in advance,
Iain
