3D Touch not leveling

Post by Uslingen » Sun Nov 20, 2016 9:55 am

Hi,

I just received and fitted the 3D touch. But even though the sensor appears to be working and I'm probing 9 points on the bed before printing, the layers are very uneven.
On the left side of the bed, the nozzle is too close and is pressing the filament against the glass plate. On the right side of the bed, the nozzle is too far off and causes the filament to be very "squiggly".

I thought the 3D sensors was supposed to eliminate these problems, but so far it has not. Am I doing something wrong?

My startup code is simply:

Code: Select all

G28
G29
G1 Z5 F5000
Any advise is appreciated! :?


EDIT: Also the pin seems to be dropping down when the printer is doing rapid movements, ex. printing honeycomb infill. I seem to spend more time adjusting the 3D Touch than I did adjusting the bed :roll:
