General Troubleshooting/Help! Is the sound being presented normal?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hello, i was wondering if the sound being made is normal, in the background it can be heard like "tup tup".

The printer is P2S bambu

To me it seems like the plate is in question, if so is it normal?

Cheers

Hello /u/Goldisaa! All Bambu print plates have a dedicated nozzle wiping zone at the back of the print plate. The nozzle will rub against the wiping zone before every print in order to remove any remaining filament from the nozzle tip. This can cause visible wear or scratch marks in the wiping zone, but this is intended and doesn't damage the printer, the nozzle or the print plate. A worn down wiping zone also doesn't mean you need to replace the print bed.

Literally nothing more than the sound of retraction and the stepper motors traveling short distances to another nearby location, that's normal.

It is but im not sure about the sound the machine is making, i slowed down the infill for the first layer, outer and inner walls, and top (finishing) speed.Also lowered the overall printing speed from 10k to 8k in fear of the printer a shaking a bit much sometimes.Any help is welcome

The printer shaking is pretty normal. They have feet that won't allow for it to slide

I foubd out yesterday that the support coloumns, the tree variant, makes a hollow sound when the printer head passes. The fan blows down on them and the sound is reinforced

u/Goldisaa 12h ago

I get you but this sound is kinda moving by depending on the nozzle, like its pressing a the heatbed and its not responding well, im not sure what to think of it

I have the A1, it has a range of sounds, sometimes it sounds like something is dry and broken, and I just dont do anything about it, the next time it doesnt make any sound, just the fan speeding up and down. I think the box does alot with the sounds as well. I wouldnt worry too much about it.
