Waves on solid layers
Hello!
Curious if anyone having this problem or if someone give me a clue where to look. I can´t remeber when this started to happen, but for several weeks now all my solid layers have waves in hight (see image attached). My bed is very plain. I can see that is a very slow Z axis movement as trying to correct any bed incorrection, but not sure. I already rec-calibrated everything and this persists.
Any thoughts?

Looks like your nozzle is way to close to the bed.
Try raising Live Z by 50 microns to start with.

Re: Waves on solid layers
It´s not. I calibrated in order to not be too much squeezed as stated in the manual. The waves are result of the Z axis going up and down slowly controlled by the software. It is not mechanics, looks like software decision. Very intriguing.
Re: Waves on solid layers
looks like temperature fluctuations .
also might be inconsistent filament radius
Re: Waves on solid layers
I will check the temperature to see if fluctuating too much. It is not filament tolerance, since the Z axis motor is making this exctly moviments. Looks like is coming from software.
Re: Waves on solid layers
Still having this waves and looks like is the firmware controlling the Z axis the culprit. Anyone have this problems?
