Layer offsetting during Huxley printing
February 21, 2013 12:03AM
Hi,


I have just setup my reprappro Huxley and are currently experiencing some print troubleshooting. I have attached an image in this thread.

The large one is he austere bunny from thingiverse and the square wall is the .5mm wall from the calibration instructions.

I find that as he printer prints a few layers, it starts to offset itself thus printing slipped layers.
I found that with the wall print, when there was no infill, it printed fine and didn't slip.

I am using the last eat slic3r plugin. I heard a few speculations around loose y axis belts?

What do you guys think?


Thanks!
Rui

Probably loose pulley on the axis where it's missing steps.

Could also be binding, loose belts, too high acceleration, overheating stepper drivers or motors.
