Jerky movement in X axis when carving
-
@chichirod by 3d carving do you mean all 3 axis moving at the same time? If so post the g code program for those moves
-
@3DPMicro The machine is only moving the X axis and Z axis when the jerkiness seems to happen. When its running at a consistant level its very smooth but as it lifts to carve a piece it jumps instead of being a smooth transition. Here is the Gcode:Eagle rough 2 0.25em.gcode

Config please. Sounds like Z speed settings could be too low

@Phaedrux The machine is only moving the X axis and Z axis when the jerkiness seems to happen. When its running at a consistent (not lowering or raising the Z axis) level its very smooth and quick, but as it lifts to carve a piece it jumps instead of being a smooth transition.

Yes increase your zspeeds acceleration and jerk. Do some testing to see if it's still in the limits and try again. Dry run first.
-
@Phaedrux Awesome, thank you. Any recommendations on how high to go to?
-
That's what the testing is for, but Start with 10x your current values. It's the 12mm/min jerk that is the biggest problem I think.
-
@Phaedrux Ok, I just wanted a starting point. Ill start playing. Thank you
-
@Phaedrux That was definitely it. It moves way better. A bit more tweaking and its all good
