Layer shift in Y Axis only.

[Karim]

Hey guys trying to figure out this, I print a benchy in the Y axis and it has layer shift towards the top as you can see in the photo. Same setting no layer shift in the X Axis. The Y Axis Nema 17 is working @ 85% of total Amps.

M84 S30 ; Set idle timeout

Same setting as above, Layer shift in Y axis.

Same setting as above, but no layer shift in X Axis.

I just increase all the value, Now I don't have layer shift in Y Axis, but the printer is very jerks, you can also hear the noise it produces. I don't want to use it like this.

This was printed in the Y Axis with setting above I cannot see any layer shift.

@karim The most common cause of layer shifts like that is something mechanical. Quite often, if the printer isn't dialled in quite right, then a blob forms on the part, the hot end collides with that blob, and something moves. If you use a print surface help in place by clips, that can move. Or a belt might jump on a pulley. Or it might not be caused by a blob forming. Maybe a pulley is loose on a shaft somewhere?

The fact that it shifted once, then the rest of the print continued tends to rule out most things related to configuration settings.

That's the first things I did, the two Y axis belts are tension ok, pulley are tight on shaft. The only thing I did not check is the linear rails on both sides. I am using buildtak flex plate, Z axis only move up and down. I made the printer faster and it did not skip (layer shift) . So I am thinking it has to do with my setting. It too jerky now, but setting does not produce layer shift.

Which Duet are you using? There are two causes of layer shift on the Duet Maestro that don't apply to the Duet WiFi/Ethernet.
