Thanks for the info. I called Mike Tieman earlier and he recommended I do the exact same things. He said that there should be very little resistance on the theta of the Z-rods, (not the case) so he recommended that the P4 head be replaced. Mike is

I have seen the bad alignment error many times and never had to replace the head for it. It usually has something to do with the laser windows being dirty or cracked. Also it could be your profile settings. Make sure all of these things are perfect b

It has been a while but I think the Mk2 was an upgraded ballscrew. I am a fan of the Quad products but if you are looking to bring production in house using these machines to do it, I would be very very careful and really consider new machines with

It has been a while but I think it is the "BAS" nozzle, a nozzle with a seal on the bottom and possibly a pick up delay.
