Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] emc with camtronics more help please

It sounds for all the world like what you've got is more of a mechanical slop/
backlash/vibration/combo problem, than a software hassel. Things do vibrate
loose from time to time, and knowing that some things, especially if pre-used,
can come with it built in, in unexpected fashion. Even if that's not the
problem, do not neglect to perform periodic maintenance/checks.
