creaking

Post by Nemanja Vujkovic »

i have a very significant creaking noise when the gantry is furthest from the home posistion..... also the lead screw on the side that the creaking is coming from also seems to bounce when the gantry is returning to the home posistion....
this may be related????
looking for any kind of help to eliminate the creaking noise and the bouncing lead screw...

Sounds like a bad ballnut, or you are in need of lubrication.
