Loud Grinding with Z hits 0
#2
Just got my Saturn going again.   I unplugged the power for 1hr, reset to zero and still the same.   Unplugged power over night, removed, cleaned and re-zero build plate.   Removed VAT, drained and cleaned VAT.   This is where I found my issue...while cleaning out the VAT I found 2 round discs from the rooks that failed to stick to build plate!   Those 2 discs where preventing the build plate from reaching zero.   Hope this helps.

happy printing

P.S.
Though I might share my rookie mistake.   When cleaning out the vat I put the VAT and build plate on a plastic meal tray and sat the tray outside for a few mins while I cleaned the cover and base unit.   When I returned to start cleaning the VAT and build plate that little bit of UV light had already started to cure the resin in the VAT and the build plate.   Normal 99% ISO was not cutting it...had to bust out the acetone.   Lesson learned Big Grin
