GT2560 V3 board failure.....
Posted: Fri Apr 12, 2019 3:35 am
So far i'm not having a lot of luck with the A10, after having the original power supply fail, it now seems that the GT2560 board has failed.
Mid way through a 10hour print the Y-axis decided to stop working and the motor was just vibrating and making a noise like the belt was slipping on the toothed wheel.
Having gone inside the control box there is no obvious sign of component failure, I have swapped round the stepper drivers and this has made no difference, I tested the Y axis motor on the X axis wire and the motor worked fine, I also tried the X axis motor on the Y axis feed and it just vibrated and also made a noise like the belt slipping.
I am guessing it can only be the board at fault so will wait and see if Geeetech send out a replacement since it is only about 3 weeks old.
If anyone has any suggestions as to anything else I can try to definitively identify the cause of the axis failure I would be happy for the help.
