Idex400 - Offset issues X Axis
Dear all .... I still got an x axis offset of about 0.4 - 0.5mm in x axis direction regardless what I'm trying 🙁 First things first - I triple checked ALL belt length - both heads, both hybrid .... they are exactly same in lenght - also in the clips - same amount of teeth.
Tensioning is done with GATS at 28NM ... erverything is perfect aligned .... even without skew compensation the printer is in a very good shape.
I'm really frustrated meanwhile .... I did the whole setup process a couple of times .... all the results are "very good" but it always ends up in a x-axis offset 🙁
Any Idea what I'm doing wrong? please let me know if I've overseen something.
Thank you sou much and BR,
Volker

here you can see the gap .... before starting the print I do of course VAOC calibration! Nozzles are perfectly aligned , but still this offset while printing 🙁 Is it possible, that my endstop switches do have an issue?
You ran these steps in the commission guide?
12. Run the following command:
_VAOC_RESET
13. Make a new VAOC nozzle alignment procedure by repeting steps 5, 6, 7 and 8.
Validate the calibration:
Open the ratos-variables.cfg file inside the machine tab and check the idex_xoffset value, if the value is higher than 1.0mm or lower than -1.0mm then the printer suffers from mechanical issues like a skewed gantry and/or uneven belt tensioning or belt length
Sure, more than once 😔
