Odd axis movement boss 5 retrofitted using mach 3
When I move my y axis by itself it stalls An grinds this is intermittent and if I jog the x and y it runs smoothly I am using leadshine ma860 drivers 7.2 amps 65 volts D.C. About to lose my mind trying to figure out as to why someone please help me

Maybe try dialing back max accel rate(s) on steppers. Check wires, make sure nothing is loose, yada, yada.
Have had issue where rapid moves would sometimes jam up Z on my BOSS 5 w/ OEM steppers - reducing max feed / accel couple ticks seemed to resolve issue. Good luck.
Hi thanks for replying. I have checked all the wires etc and dialed it way back I am thinking I have a bad drive I am using some leadshine ma860h drivers. And when I first put it together I had to get another driver. It will work great if I jog x and y together or y and z move y by itself and it sounds horribleOriginally Posted by SchortBus

Guess easy way test that is swap X / Y drivers and see if it happens on X. Growl isn't always bad drive. Loose wire or settings common too.
that said - I honestly had issues with leadshines out of box. Ended up with Gecko 203v FWIW.

Watch your step counter while jogging one step at a time. Does your counter go back and forth when you are stepping the same direction? I had some of my wires mixed up when I put my machine together. When trying to move slowly it would seem like it wasn't moving but at high speeds it would jog but not always the proper direction
