Mendel90 missing steps I need to print a new extruder for my Mendel90 Unfortunately during the print it misses steps in the X or Y I print the model with 100% fill but the printer oscillates heavely during filling in small corners and I think then it will miss steps. I reduced the printing speed and infill speed from 60 to 50 mm/s Please help me out what to do https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,470568,470568#msg-470568 Sat, 17 Oct 2026 02:03:37 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,470568,470991#msg-470991 Re: Mendel90 missing steps https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,470568,470991#msg-470991

there may be more appropriate topic area here [forums.reprap.org] as it is specific for mendel 90

What if it isn't a Mendel90 specific problem? :-)

Anyways, reducing acceleration should help. Default ones in Marlin are way too high. And printing at a moderate speed like 30 mm/s avoids getting close to speeds where stepper motors start loosing torque.]]> Traumflug General Sun, 15 Feb 2015 10:59:41 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,470568,470644#msg-470644 Re: Mendel90 missing steps https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,470568,470644#msg-470644 forums.reprap.org] as it is specific for mendel 90

motors are more likely to skip at higher speeds, as torque drops quickly as pulse rate increases, so also reduce travel feedrate.]]> jamesdanielv General Sat, 14 Feb 2015 07:54:25 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,470568,470568#msg-470568 Mendel90 missing steps https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,470568,470568#msg-470568 Unfortunately during the print it misses steps in the X or Y
