Why Squaring Matters:

• Accuracy:

  A square machine ensures your cuts are accurate and consistent. Even minor deviations from square can lead to uneven cuts, inaccurate dimensions, and parts that don't fit together properly.

• Double Sided Carves:

  A double sided carve requires a perfectly square machine. If your double sided carves are not aligned, check for square.

• Surface Finish:

  A properly squared machine produces a better surface finish on your projects. This is especially important for projects with tight tolerances or aesthetic requirements.

• Tool Life:

  When your machine is square, your tools are working as intended, minimizing wear and tear and extending their lifespan.

• Safety:

  A square machine is a safe machine. Misalignment can put undue stress on the machine's components, increasing the risk of accidents and damage.

Regular Maintenance:

Squaring your machine isn't a one-time process. Over time, vibrations and normal wear and tear can cause your machine to become misaligned. Therefore, regular squaring checks are essential to maintain optimal precision.

Investing in Quality:

The accuracy of your squaring process depends heavily on the quality of your tools and equipment. Investing in a good ruler, tramming bar or dial indicator will ensure you're getting accurate measurements.

The Benefits of Squaring:

Taking the time to square your Onefinity CNC machine may seem like an extra step, but the benefits are undeniable. By ensuring your machine is perfectly square, you'll guarantee the accuracy, quality, and safety of your projects, ultimately saving you time, money, and frustration in the long run.

Remember, in the world of CNC, starting square means ending square. Make sure you invest the time and effort to properly square your Onefinity machine and reap the rewards of precision machining.
