Axis Z problems

Zortrax M200

Hi everyone :wave:

I’m having an issue with my Zortrax M200 and I’d really appreciate your help.

The Z axis seems to be working fine — the bed moves up smoothly — but during auto calibration or when starting a print, the bed doesn’t stop and keeps going up until it hits the extruder.

Has anyone experienced something similar?
Could this be an inductive sensor issue or maybe a calibration/firmware problem?

Thanks in advance :raised_hands:
