Why is the cutter not going into my material

I have recently surfaced my Workbee 1500x1500 and since doing so, when i set up a job using V carve pro and run it the cutter doesn't cut into the material. It follows the tool path created but it's skimming above the surface of the material i want to cut by about 6mm. The material I'm using is 6mm thick and i have used the touch probe to set up my work xyz. Do i need to re-calibrate the Z height or somthing, because i've surfaced the spoil board? I can't work out what is wrong. Can anyone help please.

Hi Mark,

Is your material definitely 6mm, I normally find they can be slightly over, or uneven at points?

After you run the touch probe functions, are you setting work zero using the button? As there is no need to do this, as the probing functions automatically do it
