Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

Anyone here have any success slicing for the Rostock Max v2 or Orion in the latest iterations of Prusa Slicer? I know that I can try the wizard then tweak until I get it but who wants to reinvent the wheel? Any help or advice is very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reply avigeilpro! Perhaps it would be cheaper to install an RPi BUT, this takes up no real estate, no power, and no cords AND, I can simply save the files to the printer directly from S3d. Seems a viable option for a few $$$ more... Does anyone have any direct knowledge that this will...

Do/can the Orion or Rostock (RAMBO) platforms support FLASHAIR type WIFI enabled SD Cards?

Thanks!

HAHAHAHAHA! YUP! There IS a difference between STEPS PER MM and EXTR1 STEPS PER MM!

THANKS IMBoring25! It works GREAT! On to calibration and print testing!

Thanks for the info geneb and Nylocke! Adjusting the MOTOR_CURRENT value for E from 130 to 100 eliminated the heating problem. However, the extrusion issue still remains. No matter what value we use for STEPS PER MM in the EEPROM, we tried 80 (default), 417 (recommended starting point from e3D), and...

OK, Next problem; We have the Titan retracting and extruding in the proper directions. However, no matter the 'Steps per mm' setting in the EEPROM the extruder only moves about 24mm when told to extrude 100mm. Additionally, the stepper is getting quite hot. Hot enough that you cant leave your finger...

Here are some images of the Air-Struded Titan with a 20cm Stepper. Will post more data after some calibration and test prints.
Thanks to all for the continued assistance!

Thanks a Tonne NyLocke! Worked like a charm once we got it wired correctly. Of course, the wire colors on the old and new steppers didnt match nor did our extension wires!

Pics to follow!

Well, after some work we have the mount printed, the titan installed and the wiring completed. However, 'Houston, we have a problem!'. When we test the extruder (no filament) it does nothing but click. It does not advance. We tested for freedom of movement and there appears to be no binding. We DID ...

Great job! Sorry kids, Ive been away healing from a Lumbar Fusion but should now be able to spend more time at the idiot box! A question that came to my mind seeing different air-struder implementations is, 'Are there any real considerations for mounting the extruder above or below the mount?' My de...

Yup! Website notifications work fine, email notifications, not so much.....

Hmmmmm, I'm old and may have missed something but what else needs configuring?

I wonder how many threads from 3 years ago like this one can benefit from a fresh airing. i am a bit confused by parts of it and I wonder if some of the experts here might care to comment on what has changed and how it might affect the advice provided by the OP? Shortly after getting my second prin...

After doing a little research I have learned that the heated bed configuration item which must be changed to accurize the thermistor temperature can be found in the configuration.h file: Around line 499 you will find: #define GENERIC_THERM2_BETA 4367 NOTE: the value in your file may be different Jus...

Awesome instruction how to calibrate the hot end. Now I have literally identical temperatures on the thermocouple and the thermistor for the hot end. But how do I calibrate this now for the bed? My bed indicates 80°C, measured value us exactly 70°C. Where can I change the Beta for the Bed? It seems...

Thanks! I'm reviewing multiple designs to come up with something that will work for us. This helps a TONNE!

I got this one: http://omc-stepperonline.kancart.com/item_detail/101#!detail [img]http://i.imgur.com/fMLhZmA.jpg[/img] Yep! That's the smaller of the two that we ordered. The other is a 25mm.
