Hi,
Thanks @TBJK for replacing the relay yesterday, which allowed the machine to proceed past the initial start phase to start the machine.
Yesterday, I tried to use the machine again. The ohmic sensor error did not go off. But now, it will proceed to cut my job, but midway through the cut (between 2 and 5 seconds after starting), the machine stops moving along its axes. The torch remained on for an indefinite amount of time, and stopping the run via computer would not turn it off. This is the first time I had to effectively use the emergency stop button. Below are some notes:
- I was using a member’s fine tip nozzle. I did not try the standard tip.
- I tried two thicknesses of metal, 8GA and 24GA. Both mild steel.
- On one cut, we noticed that when the machine stopped, it would run itself downward and press into the material.
- As the torch remained on and immobile, it cut a small hole in one of the slats.
Thanks for your help @Team_Metal_Shop
