Machine does not cut panel at fixture offset settings in y direction only.
I input panel to be cut manually 30 x 96, nest it, write cnc and cut it. No problem cuts to the correct size.
Without moving panel I move the router the same distance in the x and y direction as the fixture offset.
But the center of the tool is 3/32 off the board (the one I Just cut) in the y direction only.
I just cut cabinet boxes which the flip operations are off about 3/32 but only with cuts parallel with the grain, which coincides with the 3/32 off of the y dimension in offset 1.
In Control nesting, settings, nesting parameters, I unchecked collar.
In control nesting, settings, placement pins setup, I checked use placement pins m61L1 on and M62L1 off, flip operations is unchecked.
In control nesting, settings, fence/fixture & park locations Use fixtures offsets is checked g52L1,
Flip operations G52L1. X Y adjust is checked on both of them.
I tried to describe this as clear as I can, I know its confusing.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Re: Fixture offsets / flip operations
about 3:30 am I had a thought.
this must be the home posision is off on the y axes.
so today I will look at c-marker and limit switch. .

Re: Fixture offsets / flip operations
Your Fixture offset is not set correctly. If you perform flip operations first and then flip the whole sheet and it is not correct on the y axis, then you need to change your fixture offset by half the error. If you are flipping the parts one at a time, you will need to change the offset by the value of the error.
