That looks like you have active offsets.

Thank you tommylight, there is G40 on, there is another offset we need to turn off?
Also tool compensation usually does not move to one side only, G41/G42 would left a part that could be smaller or bigger but not shifted, I think...

Leon82, do you think mechanical play could be reflected on the graphic screen? besides machine mechanics has been verified.
Thanks.

Possibly stray XY tool offsets in the tool table? Typically a mill would never use the XY columns.

Hi Andy, we are using the gmoccapy screen and not using tool compensation at all G40 is at the beginning of the program.

I am talking about tool offset, not compensation.
Tools can have lengths in all axes, not just Z.

sure they do!, but only using G41/G42 they use radius or diameter compensation, also as stated before part will end up bigger or smaller not shifted.
