Re: Print nozzle hitting bed with PINDA all the way down.
Suggestions on how to proceed?
Re: Print nozzle hitting bed with PINDA all the way down.
If nothing is touching the endstop before the carriage hits it then you may need to move your frame a bit. Did you attach the power supply bracket onto the rods in the right direction? The spacing appears to be off by enough for that to potentially be the problem.
Re: Print nozzle hitting bed with PINDA all the way down.
Didnt anybody notice he said at the start that his PINDA is all the way DOWN?
Raise it to about 1-1.5mm ABOVE the level of the tip of the nozzle. No wonder the nozzle is slamming into the bed.
Details guys.
Nozzle ----> V U <---- PINDA needs to sit 1-1.5mm HIGHER than the Tip.
Yeah, its that guy... 3D Nexus

Yes, but on the video the Y axis doesnt go far enough back before being tripped.

The end of the story --
As it turns out, the PINDA was fine. The y-axis needed to move about -7mm in order for the calibration points to be where the software was expecting them to be. This put the z-axis about 107mm from the y corners. Now calibration works fine. Thanks for all the tips. Learned a lot about this stuff!
Re: Print nozzle hitting bed with PINDA all the way down.
I have had the same problem forever! Thank you for your video and all your explanations. How did you determine that the Y needed to come down -7? Was it just a trial and error until you got it right?
Did you go to Calibration > bed leveling correction to toggle your Y-axis?
