Front-Left Grinding Noise

Posted · Front-Left Grinding Noise

Sometimes, not always, when my printer moves to the front-left corner, it seems like the motor(s) keep trying to move the print head beyond where they are supposed to.

When I manually move the print head, I can hear that the end-stops are being properly engaged.

Does anyone know how to fix this? It sounds awful!

Thank you!

    I double-checked and all endstops are correct based upon re-running the first run wizard.

    It is the Y-Axis motor (the one in the back-left corner of the printer) that seems to want to keep going when the endstop is hit.

    I've verified that the endstop is being properly hit.

    Also, it does not do it every time, just about 1/2 of the time.

    Any ideas why my Y-Axis motor is a bit crazy?

    Thanks!

        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...

        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
