I just started getting a weird clicking noise when the nozzle changes from left to right (nozzle blocker goes to left and left nozzle is raised up). I manually moved the nozzle blocker and it doesn’t seem to happen then, only when it is actually printing. It’s pretty quick, so video is short.
Anyone have any ideas? Any help is appreciated.
Sorry I uploaded the wrong video file and now having issues fixing it…bear with me. But it’s grinding at the point when the nozzle blocker switches to the left. I’m working on the video now.
Video fixed now…thanks to anyone that can help.
I also get a clicking but doesn’t sound quite as bad. I’m really not sure what it is either, just sharing my support
Thanks! I wouldn’t mind as much if it didn’t just start happening all of a sudden. Been printing for over a month on this and haven’t heard this yet. Doesn’t seem to be affecting it but I can’t imagine it’s normal operation.
That sounds like the extruder gear grinding on the filament to me. Not saying that’s what it is, that’s just what it sounds like to me.
You are on to something here I think. I just started printing a baby panda to see if it does the same thing…and it does NOT. I think it might have been the support material (Bambu support for PLA/PETG) that was in the right nozzle of when I was having the issue.
Not sure why that would be…maybe the support filament is out of tolerance and it causing grinding?
Argh it started doing it again. I’m going to try replacing the cutter blade and see if that’s it…maybe the filament is scraping against it.
