X axis us stuck

[reinfly]

Hello. My x axis only goes at 14 turns it stopped in the middle of an area clearance job. Yesterday, the wood I use generated a fine dust. It usually doesnt. Is there any part in particular that needs changing or checking? Thanks.

Fine dust indicates a tool speed that is way off.

As Gerry said, fine guest indicates that the Feed-rate is too slow...or the RPM is too high.

Depending upon the job., I'd look at the VFD first to make sure that the RPM dial has not gotten bumped.


Next check the tool-path to make sure that the feed-rate is correct...and finally when you begin the job, look at the speed scale just before the file begins.

That speed scale will manipulate the tool-path feed-rate. If its set to 0.5 for instance, the feed-rate will be running at 50% of the programmed speed....1.0 would be 100%
