Constant failures after 6 or 8 layers being printed

I'm having a repeating issue on multiple tools where the printer will layout down a perfect say 10 layers and then stop feeding filament - but continue printing.

If I try to unload the filament, the wheel in the tool doesn't turn.

I reset the machine and now unload works.     

This is becoming a serious constant issue where I have no idea if my print is going to fail.

I'd say it's a tool issue but I can literally do nothing except reset and it works, maybe.   It happens on more than one tool.

Anyone else seeing this?

I have just had it happen again.  

Literally, it printed about 4mm worth of layers and then filament stopped feeding as it continued to try to print.

I hit stop.   I tried to purge the tool.  It _says_ it's purging but nothing comes out.   

I hit the reset button.   I immediately tell it to purge.  It works.

I have had this happen on at least two different tools now.   Something is screwed in the code - there's no way this is a mechanical issue.
