Raster and Cut is not aligned!

Post by icaros »

Hi to all!

Congrats on the forum!
I have a problem with my Co2 laser from a chinese manufacturer.
I use a 50x70 Chinese Co2 laser 100W.

I used my laser for over a year now without any problems.

Now it seems to have a problem which I cannot solve...
I have attached a picture showing the problem.
These are circles with the same center. The inner circle is engraved and the outer is the cut.
As you can see it seems that the engrave (raster) is a little off to the right, or the cut (vector)
is a little off to the left.

I tried everything from checking belts, pulleys, gears, and everything seems perfect...What should i try?
Any heads up would be helpful!!

Thanking you in advance!!!

Can you provide more info please?

1) Has this always happened or is this a new problem?

2) Are the circles cut from one file or two?
If the two examples are cut from the same file differing only in scaling the drawing its the drawing. If each if the four cuts was from running a different file it may be how the drawing is translated for the machine.
