Prusa i3 x - Shifting Layers on thin/complex shapes
Posted: Mon Jan 08, 2018 5:59 am
So recently I bought the Prusa i3 X DIY kit and assembled it succesfully.
Print after print Im improving the results but no Im stuck on a point where I dont know what to do.
As for now, the prints are quite precise when printing small, simple shapes (https://imgur.com/VCyOADl)
However, when I tried more complex structures I get the first few Layer shifting in Y-Axis/printed on brim when activated (the other Layers are fine, the brim is printed correctly!) and shifting Layers when the printer prints a lot of short lines
(I suppose, like the peak on the wheel in the last picture).

Somehow strange that the boxes came out well
I already checked the belt/tried different tension and also cut the Acceleration of the Y-Axis stepper motor by half in the firmware, because I suspected skipping steps due to too fast Acceleration.The Heatbed is moving freely when seperated from motor.
As mentioned the Printer is a Prusa i3 X, the Prints a running via Repetier Host (similar Results with Cura though).
Im running the Printer at 45mm/s with 0.2mm Layer heigth.
I hope theres someone who can help me with this strange Problem :)
