Gweike Cloud Absolute Coordinates Varies by 25mm~ to Lightburn Absolute Coordinates

[Thunderdart (Josh Taylor)]

Hello,

I have been having an issue with my Gweike Cloud Pro II whereby the home position/absolute coordinates in the machine are slightly out compared to the absolute coordinates in Lightburn. The Gweike Cloud seems to be printing around 25mm to the left.

The machines home position is in the top right and when the laser has returned to the home position and I click “Get Position”, Lightburn recognises that as
X = 0, Y = 0, Z = 0.

So I am not sure if it is just a limit of the machine and that the physical mechanism in the gweike cloud will not allow it to go back any further so it has that wasted space at the beginning? Or if there is a way to force the laser head further back so it starts in the correct place?

Why there is this wasted space or why the software and the machine have two different ideas on where the default laser position is?

If anyone could help that would be great.

You answered your own question. Home position is controlled by the limit switches, not Lightburn. Lightburn only reports what the controller is telling it.
