I have a Onefinity with a JTech 7W Laser.
I've used the laser to etch on a single plane, with Z fixed.
I'm now trying to laser etch on a 3D surface. All looks good in the simulation in VCarve Pro, with the 3D movement of the laser showing up properly.
However, when I save the file and load it to my Onefinity, the movement of the Z axis disappears, so all of the laser etching is on a single plane.
Has anyone had this and know what to do?
Thanks
Steve
