Hi Peter thanks for the reply, EN de groeten vanuit Utrecht
I have a fan sucking air through my ramps box, so also over the stepperdrivers. Maybe it is not enough?
I think I will redo the wiring anyway, probably best to minimize the connections.
What you describe in 2 is what happens i guess. The stepper disables and the router comes down because of gravity, it is indeed heavy and smooth enough to come down on itself.
Maybe I have a faulty stepperdriver. I will switch the next project Iāll do. Only thing is that only happens occasionally, but until I fix it, Iām not able to do refined projects, because it is kind of a waste of time to wait 5 hours or more for a screw up because of the z axis coming down.
Thanks for thinking with me here, appreciate it. Also read your topic btw.
I didnāt see the fan in the pictures, but if you have one already I should think thatās enough.
But you and me having the same problem and both living in the Netherlands got me thinking. Maybe it has to do with the region we live in. And sure enough, this is what Wikipedia says about gravity: āā¦ gravity increases from about 9.780 m/s2 at the Equator to about 9.832 m/s2 at the polesā and āan increase in altitude from sea level to 9,000 metres (30,000 ft) causes a weight decreaseā. We live pretty far north, plus we live below sea level. Gravity is enormous here, compared to the rest of the world!
