Hello
I recently got my first co2 laser machine.
After setting it up and turning it on a few weeks ago, there was an immediate problem with loud noises and some restricted movement on the y-axis.
At first, this happened only some of the time and I was able to do some engraving although 50% of the time the engraving would be spoiled by times when some steps were skipped.
Now however, this is happening all the time and the laser is unusable.
I have contacted the factory in China several times but still no solutions. We've tried changing the jumpers on the driver, oiling the rods on the axis but neither changed a thing.
When the head is moved (and especially when the head goes to 0-y) there is often an noticeable electronic buzzing sound as if the button was still depressed. Like the motors still have load.
Please see (and especially listen to) the attached video.

Thanks for considering this. I will appreciate any help!
