There is an obvious vfa that is more prevalent along the y axis (it does still exist in the x axis). I have cleaned the carbon rods, lubricated the lead screws, adjusted the belt tensions, calibrated and self tested. Nothing so far has worked. If you have any tips it would be greatly appreciated. Here are some pictures of the “AMS Glass Separation LED Riser” by SpectreGadget
When you retensioned the belts, did you move the carriage corner to corner while also moving it side to side and front to back. (around five to six times) Yeah i know kind of like a slow motion circle/ellipse movement. If you feel tight spots your carbon rods might not be real clean.
Then push the carriage to the back. Both sides touching the back position The toolhead in the middle.
Then you can lightly snug the four screws.
FULL calibration with reboot. Then first print with bed level and flow calibration if you use stock profile.
Thank you for your input, I will try this on Monday as I am unexpectedly busy this weekend. It didn’t have this vfa out of the box so this might be the solution.
It’s much better still visible in some lighting but it’s reasonable
The only thing is the very first print I had on this printer was the preloaded benchy that came out with no vfa. I will do some more testing.
The belts probably took a little to settle in and loosen up.
That benchy is highly tuned gcode with PLA ONLY with Bambu Lab filament that has to be loaded in slot one ONLY of your AMS.
Good luck with your VFA problem.
