Problem with Z-axis lead screw
Posted: Sat Jul 09, 2016 7:43 am
Hello, I am now testing just assembled new M201 printer. I noticed that, the Z-motors were not able to rotate the lead screw to up/down the extruder head. After several attampts I found that, if I don't attach top plates (Acrylic part # i3E-08, which is used to support extruder motors) then lead screw freely rotates and can take the printer head up/down.
But these top parts are mandatory to fix the extruder motors. I also have noticed that when the lead screws rotate, they are not perfectly alinged vertically due to it's inharent non-streight structure. Could you please adviced me in this regard and help me out? Thanks.
One more thing, i possible, please send me the dimensions of this top part (Acrylic part # i3E-08) so that I can make another part?
