Strange noise during printing
Hey guys,
Maybe you have an idea whats going on here.
During printing my machine makes a strange noise. I guess its the bearings on the smooth rods. It only happens if a model is built up, if the plate is empty, no noise at all.
Check out the video during a print:
This started some weeks ago. I already checked the rods, put some lubrication on it and did the usual stuff.
My Mk2s is printing quite non stop since last July. So could it be that the bearings are damaged?
Maybe someone of you have an idea what I can do next.
Thanks!
Re: Strange noise during printing
could be, but check the bed screws too, it will vibrate like crazy if one is slightly loose. locktight will prevent it if it was. otherwise bearings.
Re: Strange noise during printing
It seems you where right! One of the screws on the bed was loose. Actually so loose that it already felt out of the frame during lifting my printer up.
This was causing these vibrations and akward noise.
Thanks for the hint! This was something I never was checking during my routine maintenance but is on my checklist now.
