Acceptable Level of Wobble (runout?) in Z-Axis Screw
Posted
· Acceptable Level of Wobble (runout?) in Z-Axis Screw
Ideally you don't want any wobble but the 2 linear bearings not the screw is what keeps it stable. If they have lots of wobble then you have a problem.
You maybe able to loosen the motor and tighten it again to try and line it up central.
A lot of people don't like how the bed sticks out and some put stiffeners to stop any wobble but that's on the plate not the lead screw.
