#sv06 making weird noises on the x-axis

I just bought this printer a week or so ago. Earlier today I asked on how to ensure a level bed when the right side was level but the left side wasn’t. I was told to tram the gantry and sent a video where it was done with two cans of soup. I followed the video and it didn’t level and now when the x axis hits the left side it makes a grinding noise similar to when you auto z align and it hits the top. I was gone for 3 hours with a print on and I was told by my family it sounded like it was grinding often during the print. I got home and the print was messed up. Anyone know what I could have done to make this happen and how to fix it?

It sounds like you may have unintentionally caused some damage while attempting to tram the gantry. The grinding noise and disrupted print suggest that something is misaligned or obstructed. Here's a troubleshooting process to help you identify and fix the issue:

  1. Start by examining the X-axis carefully. Check if there are any visible obstructions or loose components, such as debris or loose belts.

  2. If you don't find any apparent issues, try manually moving the X-axis back and forth to see if you can pinpoint where the grinding noise is coming from. This might help identify the specific part causing the problem.

  3. Once you've identified the problematic area, consult your printer's user manual or manufacturer's resources for guidance on how to address the issue. They may provide specific instructions on how to realign or replace components.

  4. If you're unable to find a solution in the provided resources, consider reaching out to the manufacturer's customer support or their ...

Is there a microswitch or is it sensorless homing?

I changed the sensitivity on it and it seems to have fixed it but now I am having a problem with the bed leveling still and the nozzle is picking up parts of the print as it goes by

unfortunately not, otherwise I would have it down pat. It auto levels. The right side of my printer is level but the left side is not

Does the printer home up to the top or to the bottom? If you can I would change it to homing to the top so that it trams naturally

rocky heath
#

It homes to the top

#

Actually, there is a setting you hit that makes it go up and hit the top to tram the gantry then the actual home puts it at the bottom

#

interesting are you able to view the bed mesh?

rocky heath
#

honestly I do not know what that is

#

There is this in the starting g-code

no problem I don't think you can since your using a basic knob screen right?

rocky heath
#

correct

rotund rain
#

What you could do is see if there is new firmware and see if that fixes it. Just save your z-offset value

rocky heath
#

So, people brought it up to Sovol and it looks like they already added it into the firmware, its the M420 S1 that is in the starting g-code

rotund rain
#

alright so what does your start g-code look like?

I'm doing this in Cura, that is correct right? I am also going to go through the process to update the firmware just in case anyways

rotund rain
#

Yes

#

Also I think you have dual z-steppers so I would review this vid and that should level the x gantry automatically as well

#

Not sure tho so don't quote me on that

rocky heath
rotund rain
#

you should be able to just upload the firmware to a sd card and insert it into the sd card slot

rocky heath
#

I should be able to but it wont flash the firmware onto the printer

rocky heath
#

Finally got it to work

#

I have to get off but thank you for the advice and help
