Hi Jon:
My next plan is to move two axes together and see if I can make it fault
that way.
Since the problem began, it's typically run for an hour before faulting.
The cutting load was very low (3/64" dia ball mill, 0.002" DOC, 8000RPM, 20
IPM finishing cut in Tellurium copper).
The EDM electrode I was cutting involved complex surfacing, so all three
axes were in motion together, with lots of short moves and direction
reversals.
Todays testing was air cutting only, one axis at a time, slow feedrates and
relatively long moves.
Jon, I really appreciate the time you're taking to help me sort this out.
Thank you!
Cheers

Marcus
