"X Axis Out of Bounds"

Post by leigh mills »

I am trying to nest our first job but am coming accross an error which is "X Axis Out Of Bounds". The error is coming on line G00 X1033.3754 Y2042.6247. I have created a simple job and attached it for an example.

I have set a fixture offset which I input into sheet operations and flip operations this is G52L3.

If anyone can help it would be great.

Thanks,

Leigh

Leigh,
What are the L3, X and Y values set to? These values would be located in your fixture offset table. Fixture offset #3.

Leigh,
First lets update your control nesting software. You are running V5.36 and we are up to V5.41. Here is a link.

http://downloads.thermwood.com/ControlNesting5-41.exe

Note: Make sure that you shut down THM software before running the update.

Then reload, renest, rewrite, and rerun the program. If you are still having problems, let me know.

Other things you may want to look for:
Check your sheet size used to create your cabinets (L x W) is correct.
Check you table parameters within CN settings. Make sure the width and length are correct.
Check to see what your table limits are. (ex. move the machine to its furthest X and Y location)

Good morning
I hope I can help you with some useful information. Your code read something like this:
SET ZSHIFT=18.0000+WASTEBOARD
[ADJFIXOFF, 1, -2440.0001]
[ADJFIXOFF, 2, -2050.0001]
G52L3
If you stand behind you table facing the gantry then your Home of the machine is on you left hand side and you fence location is on you bottom right hand side off the table , am I right? So your G901 and G902 values are positive value same as you G52L3, they will be different G901 bigger than G902. That is the distance from machine home to the corner of your fence (G902) and pins(G901) or G52L# So if you give a command like G52L1then you telling the machine to go from your machine home X### and Y### and that is your new home(0,0) By looking at your G52L3 values it seems that that home is already at the max of the table . So when the program runs and get to:G00X1033.3754Y2042.6247 (Outline), it can not execute the command because it can not go more positive on the X, or Y axis.
Our Machine generates the following code:
SET ZSHIFT = 18.0000 + WASTEBOARD
SET XSHIFT = 2750.000 (LENGTH OF THE SHEET)
SET YSHIFT = 1830.000 (WIDTH OF SHEET)
G901
And then the code here.
Maybe you should put the G52L3 in front off the ADJFIXOFF? I have no knowledge off the "ADJFIXOFF" command , if I use the G52L# command i do the following, for example:
G52L#
G00 X-500 Y-500
G92 X0 Y0
(I think G92 X-500 Y-500 will also work, but i never have tried it)
Hope this will help
