      do you still have the G29 in the start script?

        yep right after i home all

        M107
        ;M190 S45	  ;set bed temperature and wait for it to be reached
        G28          ;Home axis
        G29
        
        M109 S210 ;
        M107         ; Turn layer fan off
        G21          ; Set to metric change to G20 if you want Imperial
        G90          ; Force coordinates to be absolute relative to the origin
        
        G0 X0 Y0 F9000 ; Go to front

          while printing use M122 to check if mesh compensation is active

                i was just wondering about the 0.000, but still i have that strange issue that my map is kinda flipped around. The right side is too far up and the left side is too far down... its doing the opposite of what the mesh is giving out.

                  another possibility could be sagging linear rods causing a tilt in the hotend carriage.

                    hm, the hotend shoud be fine i didnt notice any sagging there. I will now rebuild my old stock hotend (cr-10) and see if its causing the same problem. If not, the bracket that i am using to hold my Titan Aero is very bad. I will give an update in a few hours.

                        can you measure the z offset twice

                        once on the left and once on the right?

                          yep i followed that tutorial: https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Test_and_calibrate_the_Z_probe
                          and on the left side its 1.294 and on the right side its 0.935

                          i think this is not good, becuase the offset should be the same on every side right?

                            that would indicate rotation of the carriage.

                            this could be the problem. but its a mechanical problem.

                              For my X-Axis i am using a modified version of the Prusa printable parts. But i noticed that my left side is broken, where the smooth rods come into the plastic part.

                                Hey guys, so i printed out some new X-Axis holders and now there is much tighter fit as before and i measured 0.726 and 0.658 on both sides, so far its much better then before but still not perfect. But i did a few test prints and they came out with a perfect first layer. And i dont have any more issues with the rotation of my X-Axis. Thank you for all of your help to find out what was causing that issue 🙂

                                  Hi,
                                  while this is an older thread, the problem itself is very current, unfortunately 😞
                                  While I had it for an Anycubic Mega S printer, it was basically the same root cause. I solved it w/o having to replace any hardware, but with some additional mathematics to compensate for the rod twist. I wrote something up explaining the issue and also provide there a little online tool to create appropriate compensation GCode commands. This works great for me and I have no more issues with the bent hardware, so maybe it is a proper resolution for some of you also... 😊

                                  Regards, habitoti
