This is a cry for help. I have a Monoprice Voxel which is basically a Flashforge Adventurer 3. Owned for about 3 years now, and still have only a slight idea as to what I am doing. I have been successful with small prints, little thin walled custom functional prints, and they do fine. Trying to print anything longer than 3 hours and I start having issues. I printed a torture toaster and attached is the result. I have never had layer shift like this. Was wondering if anyone out there had any pointers or tips for this printer and pla prints? Are there any other testing prints I can use to help tune and hone in on a perfect print? Good resources for using these testers to tune your prints? Thanks in advance!
I second this, but even small overextrusion can make bumps that cause collision with nozzle and therefore skipped steps. There are many other scenarios where you can have 0 issues with hardware and still failures like this. Id first start with simple models and make sure hardware is fine, then move on to more advanced models/tuning. Maybe OP just have bad slicer settings or it can be just low vref on stepper driver or lose belt pulley. But yeah, if axis doesnt move smooth dont look further, fix that first
