    OK, I finally got this figured out. Turns out I’m not crazy. It seems like my limit switches were being triggered due to noise in the wiring. I disabled them for now and everything is working fine, no more stops. I’ll redo the limit switches eventually but at least the machine is cutting fine now.

    Sorry for the late response. Just got back to my CNC today. As embarrassing as this is to admit, the problem was that I was hitting my limit switch! I think I have overloaded the machine in the past and that set me down this path, but this time was all my fault. Thank you for the help.

    PS-I do have a fan and I am running a Meanwell 24 volt 8.5 amp switching power supply.
