In this video I show how I calibrated the 3 axis’ travel accuracy, and backlash on my AVID CNC router. I also show how to test for missing stepper motor steps in all axis’.
NOTE: I failed to clearly articulate that the AVID CNC machines have dual motors for the Y axis (moves the gantry). Therefore, the Y axis needs a calibration for linearity and backlash for each motor. This can be done by repeating the procedure I show in the video at both ends of the gantry, in other words, and X=0, and X = Max.
