Re: How-to: Dimensional Accuracy Calibration for Delta Printers

My Delta build is very accurate. All angles are nearly perfect. Effector is parallel to the printbed. Arms are all within 0,05mm Tolerance. But why are all prints in Y-Direction 0,1mm to small, but in X-Direction nearly perfect? No matter what I do, Y-Direction is 0,1mm smaller than X-Direction, in...

Re: How-to: Dimensional Accuracy Calibration for Delta Printers

I´m in the process to calibrate dimensional accuracy also. All is nearly perfect, but have one issue. Printed Boxes like 626pilot mentioned. One 30x30x10mm, 60x60x10mm, 90x90x10mm. All hollow. Wall thickness is 2mm. Walls are 2mm one the spot, height is on the spot. Cube 30x30 is in X=30,02 in Y=29,...

Hi All, I did some prints with the colorfabb XT-CF and recognized the very good stability/Stiffness. Extreme High Flex Modulus (6.2 GPa) / twice as stiff as PLA Moderate strain at break (8-10%), so no extreme brittle filament, but toughness High Glass Temp. (Tg = 80C) Very high Melt strength Very hi...

I've just ordered the duet. Is the crishamm fork of the dc42 reprap firmware the one to go with then?
At the Moment, yes.

But David will update with all new features in near future.
I have used both. Davids and Chris Firmware. Both are great and nearly the same.

Re: Duet setup - instructions in progress

@ lightpath:

assuming your wiring is correct, try to lower acceleration for the extruder massivly.

I had an 5:1 extruder motor which only worked well when I lowered acceleration from 2000 down to 700. above it was lossing steps and sometimes stalling.

Re: Duet setup - instructions in progress

@KAS: on the second time I watched your video I recognized that your IR-Board is attached too far away from the surface. Normal probing point is between 3-4mm. But yours is much more. Maybe one of the IR-Diodes is heavily missaligned. Send this video to David and I´m sure he knows what to do or what...

Re: Duet setup - instructions in progress

My IR-Probe is working perfect. Like KAS said, every surface is showing different probe heights. Think it´s because of better/worse reflection. But my sanded PEI is giving me repeatable accuracy in 0.01-0.02mm. Same on Glas, which is painted black on the rearside, or on Buildtak. I have now 3 IR-Pro...

Re: web based Delta printer least-squares calibration calcul

If I could make 1 change to the Rostock or make 1 upgrade recommendation it would be to use Duet with an FSR probing system... Better to use the contactless IR-Miniboard from David (DC42). Using FSR is probematic if you are using a heated bed which is covered with Buildtak for example. One touch wi...

Increasing the triangle count will improve the print quality until you reach the segmentation threshold of the firmware, at which point, increased # of triangles won't have an effect and might actually make things worse.

Re: Heuristic (AI) calibration for delta printers on Smoothi

DC42´s calibration is working well if you have a complete flat bed and hardware which is accurate built. I have 0.02-0.05mm tolerance on glas across the whole bed (280MM dia). But only on Glas. When I do it on Buildtak or PEI on my finemilled aluminum heatspreader I got 0.07-0.12mm. That shows, that...

Have you solved your temp holding problem with running layer fans?
