Ridges on circles
February 05, 2014 06:15AM
Any help or ideas appreciated. I seem to get ridges on circles being printed in the XY plane. I do not know whether this is with the software I am using Designspark->Slic3r->Pronteface or whether it is a motor speed setting e.t.c. Any help would be appreciated.

A better picture would be good. But from what I can see it is a jerk problem. The printer is essentially stopping at every little direction change causing slight over extrusion and there for a blob. Try increasing the jerk setting in firmware.

What firmware are you using?

It almost like the printer is stopping at each point along an arc.

Can you share the file? It might actually be in the design.
