      So I have also layer shifts BUT ONLY when I´m switching tools.
      May we have a similar problem.....
      I slice with cura.

          Any news?
          I´m also frustrated about the offset.

            @dvd479 At what angle is the part sloping with respect to the build plate? By that I means, does it slope front to back, left to right, or at 45 degrees to X and Y? A picture of the machine with the completed part on the build plate would be a great help.

              @mrehorstdmd said in Strange layer offset on coreXY:

              I would try modifying the step/dir/en timing parameters in the M569 statements. You may be operating right at the limits or the external hardware. Try increasing the values until they are well above the minimum specs in the driver manual. In my sand table with servomotors I use

              M569 P5 S1 R0 T4.0:5.0:6.0:12.0 ; drive 5 reverse, lo enable, timing parameters for servomotors
              M569 P6 S1 R0 T4.0:5.0:6.0:12.0 ; drive 6 reverse, lo enable, timing parameters for servomotors

              These values allow the motors to hit their back-emf speed limit of 3k rpm.

              Some photos of the printer might be useful...

              @DVD479 Have you taken a look at this yet?

                first of all I want to thank all those who have given me useful advice to solve my problem. in conclusion it seems that the problem is solved using Slic3r and going to set the value of XY SIZE COMPENSATION after several attempts and in this way I was able to solve the positioning error and the 20mm cube was printed correctly. I just have to test if this procedure works with other more complex files but I think it can work.Screenshot (18).png

                  Based on your experience, is this a valid solution or can cause problems on complex prints?

                    @dvd479 It doesn't make any sense that that would fix the problem. Something else is wrong. XY size compensation is there to adjust things like hole sizes that print smaller than design size. It's essentially going to scale the print size slightly. That should not fix a layer shifting problem.

                    Keep looking.

                        in the end I realized that the problem was not due to that parameter as you told me. as solution I reduced the transition speed and everything was fine

                        thank you all
