I had problems with the small CNC randomly stopping. I found that the collar on the motor connector loose. After tightening all problems went away. I also found that the Z axis alignment puck will stick to the bit if you don’t hold down during an auto alignment sequence causing an error in the Z height.
I wonder if this is the cause of intermittent Y-axis issues?
I hope this was the cause of the Y-Axis issue. I came on here to post about this and saw this thread. I was cutting a juice groove into a cutting board on Tuesday when all of a sudden the bit wandered over about a quarter of an inch halfway through the first pass. Hopefully this solves that but I’m not sure.
The axes have not been lubricated properly, the Y axis rail is jamming. Laguna put out some instructions, but they’re incorrect. Hiwin needs specific tools and a special grease applied through their fitting. I went through how to do it here, and listed the exact items needed. I don’t know if they’ve been ordered.
