My 3d printer is not moving.

Hi everyone, I have a Question, but first, i should say that i do not know english very well :) my question; I built 3d printer. It is working, but it is not moving. LCD screen says that the printer is ready. After giving the command sound coming from the engines (X,Y,Z), but they do not move. I wonder what are the possible solutions?

  • If you hear sounds it is loosing steps. So check by hand when motors are enabled if they can take some force. If not the stepper driver current my just be wrong set. If only one coil gets power (connection problem) the motors won't turn as well. If you try to move too fast or with too much acceleration it may also stall. So check eeprom  if these values are normal and especially if steps per mm match. If you have set them for 1/16 stepping and driver is set to full stepping that would also be a problem.
