V-Core 3.1 wide boy (with motion system from 4) has high vibrations in y at 125 hz
Im building a retro fitted 3.1 wide boy with v-core 4 motion system and toolheads from the 4 (named 3.1.4 from chiefdotjs :D) i have freshly rebuilt the frame and im using beacon on the one toolhead and a nozzle adxl on t1.
The printer is standing on my wooden floor (colleague suggested that maybe a rug could influence that)
I have checked all the screws they should be tight, i when i manually execute

oscillate freq=125 time=60 axis=y
i cant feel the electronics panel vibrating which was one cause in another thread i checked
I have checked the belt tension via west3ds belt tension meter, tried 2.5 and 3 on all belts. The rails moved freely before belting and adjusting the frame with beacon
My bed mesh is within .18mm which should be good enough
So im out of ideas on what to do/try, any suggestions maybe? 😄
Im also using the 35mm nema 17s with 48V and gates belts

hey @CHIEFdotJS did you have any similar high oscillations at 125 hz?
Could it be cables?
Umbilical?



i'll go check here in a few minutes
I didn't really pay a lot of attention to my shaper graphs. 😃




as you can see, my graphs aren't anything to dial home about
I haven't bothered to look into resonance compensation at all my main concern so far has been accuracy over speed
also, if you're following my build, I did wind up having to chop about 4mm off my Z1 linear rail
nice in x, y is something 😄
what accelerations are you running with?
i have mainly built upon your forked onshape document
im checking your newest version now
@CHIEFdotJS by adding that tiny 3030 you can keep the vaoc permanently installed right?
whats the reason behind the change in z coupling mechanism
repeatability?
