Hey guys, just started using my crossfire and have been dialing in on presets for the materials I use for a while and I have noticed that at random times, the x axis will just shift forward. It wasn’t that noticeable at first because I was making rectangular pieces for the most part but the issue is pretty clear along diagonals. As far as I know, the gcode should be fine but even on dry runs, I can see the x axis stutter. Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Looks to me like loose motor coupler set screws. Tighten them down hard and see if it improves.

Hey Daniel, thanks for the quick response. The coupler was a touch loose but even after tightening down on it, the issue persists. Maybe it’s an issue with the motor?
I’ve figured out my issue, it wasn’t the x axis jumping but rather the y axis slipping, seems that one was loose too

I had some trouble keeping mine from slipping, @jamesdhatch suggested that I feel the screw fall into a slot /thread and the tighten the hell out of it, it ended a bit of frustration. I did Locktight it as well but maybe not needed.
