Print shifting consistently

ericpudding · Post by **ericpudding** » Thu May 21, 2015 9:24 pm

For every print lately I have had consistent shifts about an hour in. I have tried many different options but still have shifts. I tried tightening the belts and making sure the carriages were correctly tightened. After that didnt work, I thought the Rambo board was too hot and I have a desk fan aimed directly at it but still get shifts. I have also lowered the print and move acceleration. I have run out of ideas of what to do to fix it. Anybody have other ideas?

Yes. But I slice it again every time. And I have printed it successfully before with the same part file.

Without having any idea what the model looks like, I'm guessing your travel move is too high.

If your model gets out to the edge of your print area, you've got to be careful with the speed of your travel move. Try lowering that a bit.

I think greasing my joints solved the problem.

I wonder if that would work with my arthritic joints?

Take them apart and pump in some teflon

No, use bacon grease. Bacon fixes everything.
