mk3s y-axis making noise when printing solid layers.
Hi!
This is newly built mk3s with the latest firmware.
When the printer is printing solid layers, (apart from the first layers) the y-axis is making kind of a squealing sound when the bed is moving fast and long moves.
I rechecked the u-bolts for uneven tightness and added a softish mat under the printer to prevent the table the printer sits on from resonating, but that did not help much. I also added the prusa grease according to the maintenance chapter.
I have read some forum posts that the y-stepper sometimes resonates to the frame but I'm not sure of that. Other than the solid layers the printer is very silent 90% of the time.
I starting to lean towards this being normal, or my table on the wheels is somehow still resonating.
Thanks!
