Hello Hugonier,

If you don't tell us what setting or what pre-processor you use we can't tell.
Then our guess is as good as yours.

But for start this, if you use the DIN/ISO format you should invert the Z-coordinates and use preferably WinPC-NC ATC Arcs mm (*.nc)

suc6 and happy easter

uploading the gcode-file could help....

by the way:

- did you make a reference run?
- did you "zero" your material?
- where is your 0-point in the gcode file ? is it similar with she settings in winpc-nc ? ("0" can be on machine table or top of the material)
- did you make measure run with your tool?
- is your safety height correct?
- are he units used in cut2d and winpcnc the same ? ( both set to mm and mm/sec)

you see there are lot of incluence parameters and possiblilities to make a fault.

Good evening, my name is Luciano and I write from Italy.
  I have a stepcraft 840/2 with which I'm trying to get a 10mm plywood grating. The original design made with VCarve Pro then postprocessor for WinPc-nc USB. When processing starts with WinPc, the tool sinks into the material beyond the set limit. I reset the zero point of the z axis to zero. I send you the GCode of the file in question. Thank you for any clarification.

Hoi Bart!
Hoe is dit probleem opgelost geraakt?
Ik lijk momenteel dezelfde te ondervinden, Via Aspire naar Winpc-nc gestuurd als Winpc-nc Arc.nc bestand en zelfs na meermaals checken of alle instellingen goed zijn boort het in het machinebed.

Nog niet verder getest omdat ik eerst op dit Forum naar antwoorden kwam zoeken, en bij deze kwam ik bij de jouwe terecht!
alvast bedankt!

good afternoon,

I experience the same issues as listed above. The machine just dives into the machinebed.
What is the solution for this?

I used the winpcnc atc arc mm function to save the toolpaths and winpcnc is set on HPGL.

Can someone help me please

greetings from The hague (NL)

Hello All,

Did you checked in WIN-PC NC the attached file setting in Dutch "Beweegrichting omkeren" to switch the movement direction of the Z-axis.
Because the G-code needs this otherwise Z-negative is upwards instead of downwards.

check and have fun.
