Adjusting home position….laser hitting frame


How/where do I adjust the axis such that I’m a few mms away from frame so it doesn’t hit?

Travel limits are managed by the controller software.

Enter $$ in the Console window.
In the list that appears, look at $130 and $131.
$130 is the Xaxis maximum travel in mm. Yaxis is $131. How do these numbers compare to your stated workspace by the manufacturer?

its the Ortur Expansion kit…so specs and $130 and $131 both say 400x850. I’m sure I have my z axis installed right. But yeah, its still hitting just barely

$130=395
$131=845.

400x850=340,000
395x845=333,775
340,000-333775=6225
6225/340000=0.0183, or 1.83% workarea loss. Small price to pay for not banging into the frame.

Don’t forget to reset the Lightburn workarea too.
