Vertical lines

Hey everyone,

I have an on going issue with vertical lines that are appearing on the right side of the X axis. I am hoping you will be able to see from the attached image. It gives this side a wavy feel to it instead of smooth like the others. I have upgraded the belts to fibreglass reinforced belts and I have printed the tensioners which have helped with other issues but not this one!

The left side has these vertical lines as well, but they don;t protrude as much as the right and are barely noticeable.

Any ideas?

(Ignore the actual model as I stopped it half way through!)

Thanks in advance!

Anil

These lines are often called " ghosting" or " ringing" because they appear every time the extruder or the bed changes direction rapidly.
You can try to reduce printspeed, acceleration, weight of the components ( eg. Bowden extruder )
