Delta autoleveling offset

Delta autoleveling offset
December 29, 2016 02:54AM
Hello,

I would like to replace the auto-level sensor which needs no offset with a 3DTouch, but what about the offset? It would be mounted in the opposite direction with the y-tower, but if I move the tower in y-direction the other both are also moving and the effektor is not moving straight. So how to define the offset?

Best regards,

Sven

That means the sensor is at the front while the y-tower is at the back, z left and x right.

I think I would put down some blue tape in the center of my bed, [0,0], then mark where the nozzle touches the bed. Next, manually position the so that it is "centered" on the mark you made. Whatever the current x,y coordinates are, that is your offset. Maybe you need to reverse the numbers (2,3 becomes -2,-3)? Shot in the dark. Good luck.

It seems that the angle between the sensor and the Z-tower is 30°, so in theory the offset of x and y should be the same? I will test this later, but nevertheless what about the sign? if I move to X/Y (10/20) for example, what I have to set in the config? plus or minus?
