Z Axis Not Quite Deep Enough
Hey there, I'm trying to go through a piece of material that is .827 inches thick with a profile toolpath. When I simulate toolpaths it all looks grand and clean. However, when I go to the actual material the bit seems to be only going down .75 inches. I can see on my masso control screen that the 1/4 inch bit gets to .75 perfectly and finishes the cut. This is probably a super simple fix that I just need a fresh set of eyes on.
Thanks!

Take a look at your profile toolpath, there you'll see you have the need to set the material thickness, you might have gone too fast and over looked that, or you could have put the wrong thickness there.

Hey Mike,
I see my material thickness is still at .827 inches as well as my finish depth. Thanks for the help.
I don't know a thing of that software, is there someone who you can talk to with them (a help desk or), there might be a setting or something different that might need to be set or changed. They could have a limit set or. I've had to change a couple of my ball screws here the last few years and I need help with the setting to get it right, I also upgraded the control software had to do the same thing. So it might be in your best benefit to ask them, let them know your toolpath is set at just below .827 but the software (control) is saying only at .75.
