Why is the my 3d printer layer shifting on the y axis when printing parts.

maybe the gub screw loose in the pulley, maybe the cable snagging on the frame!.

Could be the Y axis Belt is too loose. Could be you need to adjust the Current to the Steppers.

I'd go with a loose belt too. Possible binding of the bearings on the smooth rods causing the motor to stall? (does the hot bed move smoothly when you move it by hand?)
Has it ever printed correctly or is this a new occurrence?

Heatbed moves smoothly it doesnt moves to diffucult

The 3d printer's y-axis strap was very tight I loosened the y-axis strap a little but it has got a layer shifting on which my pressed parts.
Could it be because your head moves too fast because head moves very fast ,could i change printing speed.

The Y-Axis belt being too tight can cause motor stalling and therefore layer shifting. A tight belt with a high print speed will make the problem worse.

(The print speed(S) are set in your slicer configuration.)

Check out Simplify3D's Print quality Troubleshooter for more information.

Hope that helps! smileys with beer
