Tool changer clamps very loose
So I find that I'm getting alot of tool changer crashes. Today I was printing a colored benchy, and watched it during a tool change. It dropped off the first tool fine. But when it went to pick up the next I noticed the clamp bars moved while the head moved, so when it went to pick up they were out of place causing the jam. Am I missing something, like an adjustment to tighten them a bit? Not sure what to do.

Hello!
It sounds frustrating to deal with tool changer crashes, especially during an important print. The issue might be related to the timing or alignment of the clamp bars during the tool change. Ensure that the clamp bars are properly aligned and securely tightened, as misalignment can cause them to move out of place. Sometimes, adjusting the timing of the tool change can help, especially if the head moves too quickly. Additionally, make sure your printer's firmware is up to date, as firmware bugs can cause issues. Perform a calibration of the tool changer to ensure everything is set up correctly, and refer to your printer's manual for specific instructions on adjusting the clamp bars and tool changer settings.
