Need some help
My X stepper motor is very noisy and starts skipping steps after about 5-10 layers
The noise it makes is a grinding growling noise and not the normal squealing musical noise of a stepper.
I have tried adjusting the driver from low to high. Skipping and noise gets louder the higher I go.
3 different drivers
3 different steppers
2 different ramps boards
Using Repetier Firmware (latest Version)
Adjusted stepper driver, Jerk, Travel Acceleration, Print Acceleration without change
Using a Chimera hotend with Nimble Extruder.
All other stepers work fine and as expected.
Able to print a 10x10mm square box and a 20x20 hollow box without issue
Any other print causes the skipping steps.
X carriage freely moves by hand with no hangups. Belt is tight but not to tight
The only thing that hasnt been swapped out at this time is the Arduino Mega. Not sure this could cause the issue I am having
