cyborg-engravers

general rules: 1) Make sure you only use sharp cutters.
2) Make sure your cutters have been sharpened using the correct grinding angles for the material you have to engrave.
3) Always try not to engrave deeper than necessary. For plastics this means just deep enough to get through the top layer.
4) If you have to colour fill engravings, e.g. in aluminium, the engraving depth needs to be be 0.3 mm.

Check the following:

1. Is there a timing belt between the spindle motor pulley and the spindle pulley ?
2. Does your virtual pendent on the computer screen show a cutter with a “green arrow” ? . If it shows a red arrow ,the spindle will not rotate.

Continue to trouble shooting, the engraving results are poor.
