    I've had the left Y motor stop twice in the last couple days, on Workbee 1010 w/ 2.2kw spindle. First I thought the Nema 23 high torque motors; however, if I shut the system down and reboot, the motor and all motors work fine. On the most recent episode, was cutting a tiling project and on the second cut it forgot zero, went off course and then the suspect Y motor stopped working. I noticed there is a firmware update, going to try that, any other clues?

    thanks

    1) Which controller are you using
    2) Have you checked current adjustment on the motor that stops (sounds like thermal cutout - which resets when you power cycle / gave it bit of cooldown time)
