I don’t know if the engraving started from bottom to top or top to bottom. Either way, where it is distorted, if the material has not moved from its location, you will have a mechanical problem there.
Please start by checking here: Warped Or Disconnected Lines - LightBurn Documentation if you find any defect.

Engraving started from the bottom. Y axis seems to stop. Loosened the belt slightly. Still no improvement. Tightened X axis belt because it seems to stutter.I think it has something to do with the Y axis.

Did you adjust the motor current setting for the y-axis motors? That’s a must. Read here: Workspace extension kit - Diode Laser Wiki

This is too obvious. That’s probably why I didn’t even remember that it could be a cause!!! :laughing:
Well seen! :+1:
