Re: plasmacam dnc trouble with up down
It is possible your controller keypad is faulty and causing your issue. I don't expect it would be too costly to replace to give that a try.

Re: plasmacam dnc trouble with up down
I think I answered this somewhere already. Maybe on the Owner forum? Check motor windings and harnesses. This is how it behaves if one winding is open or connection faulty.

Re: plasmacam dnc trouble with up down
Is the up/down on these machines a stepper, servo, or basic DC motor?

The Z motor up and down is a stepper motor.

Re: plasmacam dnc trouble with up down
Thanks Robert. For some reason I thought they were just a DC motor.
