I don't see errors (error counts or hiccups) in M122.
You should try the test of loosing one side and run the test again. Releasing the side is only for the test.
One idea is your little screw is connected to a plastic part. This part is much weaker than all the steel/brass around, so it will flex much more under pressure.
-
@JoergS5 what should i make loose? i mean why would i have all these issues?
i never had any problems with the ramps before. the auto bed level worked fine, everything worked fine, i just wanted a quieter printer and more features than that old ramps could provide me.
i would honestly say that theres nothing physically wrong with my set up but im down to try what ever.
-
@joehsmash My idea was that the Z movemement stuck because you have pressure between left and right side. This was the reason for my proposal. But if you know that this is not the reason, you don't need to make this test of course!
-
@JoergS5 also about that little screw, thats not an issue. its currently not holding any weight other than to just hold the clamp onto the lead nut so that my axis switch stays in place.
as i said before i could cheat it but it would just cause more issues.
-
No problem, don't do anything I propose if you don't want to.
-
-
@JoergS5 i see what you saying.
the way this gantry works is there are these clips that hold the axis end stops in place, that sandwiches the top of the gantry to the lead nut so that when it pushes the nozzle into the bed it will tilt the gantry and raise one of the sides which inturn triggers one of the switches.
on a side note, if the gantry gets too much out of level it puts lots of pressure on the lead screw and the linear rail and as such will not allow the switches to trigger.
right now theres is no pressure between the right and the left screws because i have manually leveled the gantry. only the firmware keeps pushing it out of level.
-
I want to share a last idea what could be wrong: the endstop is very near to the construction above:
Maybe it bumps into the upper part before the switch is activated sometimes.
-
if i take the axis clamps off theres nothing to stop the gantry from just raising until the lead nuts come out of the gantry and it will just sit there and spin forever
-
@JoergS5 right now the NC switch is in an inverted state, the entire weight of the gantry is resting on the lead nut, and the switch clamp is clamped to the leadnut and snugged up to the bottom of the gantry. so that when the nozzle hits the bed, it raises the gantry approx 1mm which causes either of the switches to trigger.
-

I didn't mean to remove anything, only to loose one side. (With loose I mean: Do not tighten the screws but loosen them, so that they can give way a little.)

Ok I understand. That's a good idea and is very precise!

I am not sure, but while watching the video, I think I see some subtle rotations of the endstop while it activates. The rotation means Z movement because the endstop is connected to the trapezoid spindel. Maybe this is the reason for your differing values.
-
@joehsmash i dont mean to be a smart a$$ im not,
ive just had this machine apart and back together so many times now that im sure i can build it in my sleep.
i would just like to be able to get back to the auto level like i had before and get back to printing.
-
@JoergS5 i could snug up the lead nut inside the gantry arm for sure. i have some .001 shim here.
-
@joehsmash The video is counting down from 0.25 to 0, at position 0:12 the endstop rotates a bit. This changes the measured value. Because the endstop is assembled on the trapezoid spindle and the rotation itself changes the Z position.
