All Things Z - Deep Dive - Marlin Tricks - Chris's Basement

In this one we take a look at the Z Axis on your 3D printer. We will look at types, issues you might see and firmware tricks to fix them. Corrections: First, the Anycubic Mega has 2 Z drivers, that's is how it uses the 2 Z endstops. Second, the SKR 1.4 has the Z connections in parallel, not series. Always check your schematic when looking at things like this. Some boards go from the driver to both sets of pins, others go from the driver to one set of pins then tag the next set of pins on those pins. Finailly, the break out PCB's you see like I show in the video are setup in parallel, I just got turned around on that one. 00:00 Intro 01:05 Single Lead Screw 04:10 Dual Lead Screw 08:27 Board and Drivers 11:24 Firmware Configuration 31:20 Conclusion These are affiliate links and take you to Amazon. ------------------------------------------------------ Parallel motor adapter: https://geni.us/IIOqB ------------------------------------------------------ Helpful Links: Lead Screw Video:    • Lead Screws - Printer Upgrade - Chris's Ba...     SUPPORT THE CHANNEL BY CLICKING THESE LINKS!
