I have the stock setting on a piece of wood. I bring the spindle (cutting tip) to the center of the stock and drop it until it a paper thickness between the tip and the stock, then zero it.
I hope this helps. I tried to attach the gcode but I'm not sure it uploaded.
K so double sided tape to hold it down? It is likely the aluminium/ wood is not true enough. Set z in middle the move to a corner and bring the tool down til it locks the paper. But dont zero z Read the z value. That will til you how far you are out of true.
if it is close enough set z at some average. If not
yiu need to build a z map, or improve your wood holder, with a planer.
i use a piece of 1/4 aluminum has a base.
also tou can set z say .5 mm high run the cut, then drop z say o .2 and rum it again. This will show you the high and lows
Thank you for the advice. BTW, I'm using hold down clamps for the base and the stock. I will definitely use your advice. Is there anywhere else in fusion to set depth? I'm only asking because I am very new to this whole thing.
You can set the work piece origin to the too of the stock, Or you could set it to the bottom of the stock.
i would rnsure that you have the work piece origin set to the top of the stock, and zero machine z to the top of the stock
The depth comes from your tools angle and tip diameter. Modify these things to where the max cut depth is less then .5mm.
