It sound like Hunt for Red October but my lathe.
I did a knowledge base search on this forum for "sound" and "alarm." No joy.
Whatever this is, is doesn't show up in the log. The horrid sound follows the end of a GCODE instruction set, then the machine proceeds to suicide past the Z stop.
What is this horrid sound?

Re: What is this horrid sound?
Thank you so much for the guidance, this is all newly assembled and configured so I'm still learning and appreciate being shepherded into the community.
Here is a fresh report on the machine.

Re: What is this horrid sound?
Sounds / looks like the Z stepper stalling. You can see what looks like it wedging / slowing down (look at the bottom most part of the saddle) just before it makes the sound.
Remove the ballscrew, move by hand, is it free in that area?
