X-axis homing problem
January 06, 2014 05:36PM
Hi there,

This worked in the weekend - X-axis homing that is.
But today it doesn't. The X-axis carriage tries to go beyond the limits of the axis - it moves towards the motor really fast, and the motor just keeps pulling resulting in a jerky noise coming from the belt :-(

It seems like the Z-axis probe doesn't recognize the foil anymore, but I haven't changed a thing.

I can get reading from the probe just fine (using the command G31).

Anyone has seen this too?

Best,
Henrik

Henrik,

Try adding a piece of white tape (or white paint) on the x-axis stop.

Like this:



HTH,
