Now it seems louder. In my case this noise is very quiet and short, it happens only on 45mm/s X axis moves (perimeters paralel to X axis), on specific areas of the axis (small spot 1/4 from the right side) and most of the time it's covered completely by fan noise or other printer noises. Does anybody face this problem? The video of printing: Jun 22, 2025 · RE: Z-Motor Rods noisy and heavily vibrating NOT normal, but not unexpected either.

Apr 20, 2020 · RE: Loud grinding/rattling-type noise during fast diagonal movements That was my thought as well. I checked the bondtech gears and they look aligned, and there's no debris i could see.
