Soft Y limit in the middle of work the area

Elite Series (Masso & Redline) (Gen 1)
1

Hi, I have been hitting a soft Y error right within the working area.

I can joggle the bit all over the area with no error.

Even a dry run will stop.

I have tried swapping serví motors but error is consistent.

Forman elite with Masso.

Any idea will be great.

Looks like your part is running on the exrteme edge of the Y axis and is not square, so its running passed the limit. Move the job origin to the middle of the table and see if that helps

Ken5, thank you for taking the time to reply. Here is my dilemma, it stops right where the ‘+’ is, so technically it did the back of the “T” without any issues, but it stops right in the internal part of the T ( the one closest to the center of the wok piece, the frame is cut already too.

I try re-homing it, re-squaring it, and moving the motor around, but it’s doing the same.

I am lost on what to do next.

Ok

  1. Turn off machine, and wait 2 minutes power up and rehome.- Can achieve- Yes - No
    If No check cable connections, make sure sensors are free of dust and check motor couplers are secure.
    If still no check for squareness of rails and loose bolts. If still no contact support- it could be a motor issue.
    If yes try and run a small file- simple 4" circle (air cut)- if successful add spindle on- (still air cut)- if unsuccessful- could be a grounding issue or signal disruption
    If successful could have been a corrupted file

I’ve noticed Masso reads ahead and throws a fault if the spindle will go out of bounds in the future. It doesn’t mean the current position is out of bounds. It means the spindle is expected to go out of bounds later.

Mike is correct. Masso reads ahead so it’s not stopping on the problem line, it’s stopping before the problem line.

Your issue is in Y, so front to back.

Here’s the faq: Help! My Toolpath says 'Under' or 'Over" (BB controllers) OR 'Soft Alarm on AXIS" (Masso controllers)! (with videos)

Mike you are correct.

It was a tile that the overlap on the top part put it outside the work area

Did this but the result was the same.

The answer from Mike below explains what happens.

I ended up just removing lines from goose and the error was like 5-10 lines ahead of where the machine was cutting.
