Ok so hello,, As this forum is full of mentors so i wanted to know that which printer can print reinforced carbon fiber(space quality) as this material require high temp around 385C nozzle and 140C bed...?? Or is there any other way to build it with that specification like diy thing?by the robobuilder - General
HELLO SIR! I'm building a conveyor belt based 3d printer and now stucked on belt,, What type of Belt or belt material should i use which are easily available too to get best prints .. and also pls suggest me some online store that have this belts note: i'm using prusa heatbed as fixed base plate for these belt... See attachmentby the robobuilder - General
Thanks Viktor VDX sir u solved my problem,you had this idea 7 & 11years ago when i was in middle & primary school thats a great thing... .........FINELLY I CAN BUILD MY OWN CONVEYR 3D PRINTER WITHOUT ANY WORRYING JUST BCOZ OF U SIR Thanks again and keep going sir.....by the robobuilder - General
Hey guys I wanted to build and sell my 3dprinter with using conveyor in Y-axis for long prints but i'm confused that this type of design is patented or not??? If it is patented then how to deal with that,and if not then thats GREAT!!! see attachment So pls reply... Thanksby the robobuilder - General
thanks i will try with ammeterby the robobuilder - General
ok so what type of power meter?????/any link???by the robobuilder - General
ok so i recently build my own repap 3d printer without using heatbed(using pla).. and i wanted to calculate the total power cunsumption of my 3d printer in minute or hour basis so how do i calculate it??? i'm using 12v nema17 1.8amps 5 pieces, 12v 40w heater with 12v dc fan and 100k thermistorby the robobuilder - General
ok got the solution i just changed the bed size and centered the x,y axis and problem solved previously my x,y is at 0,0 position that is why printer is printing wrong.. AND got new PROBLEM which is when i print 40mm object the finel print result output is 33mm how and why 7mm difference?????????????????????????????????by the robobuilder - General
again i printed a 42 mm square but my printer prints only 15mm of square???and i dont know where to get original size??by the robobuilder - General
i am begineer so i dont know how to check software(slic3r 1.1.7) and how to stop pre pla coming out of nozzle do u know where is the option for that??by the robobuilder - General
i am using slic3r 1.1.7 and did not found any auto scale option in my slic3r so where it is????by the robobuilder - General
ok so i testing my 3d printer with 20mm cube which my printer printed it fine but when i use something different or bigger like 40mm cube etc or more object it always prints in a same size that is of 20mm cube so whats the wrong???by the robobuilder - General
thanks all for quick reply now i am using a small 25INR(0.36USD)(see attachments) glue stick for glass is it fine?? and i have one problem when i click on print button then my hotend starts heating to 185C temperature and pla comes out of nozzle before the actual printing starts and this pla sticks to nozzle and follow the nozzle,,this will ruins the whole printing...... so how to stops the plby the robobuilder - General
ok i am using PLA and wanted to print object within 10cm range so do i have to buy heatbed or using just gluestick is fine???by the robobuilder - General
so i finally made my own 3d printer without using heatbed now while printing my pla sticks and curl to nozzle,,it goes up to nozzle and not to bed(glass bed)??is heatbed necessary for diy 3d printer???by the robobuilder - General
i am very stupid i completely forgot to check 1 and 3 ,,,and 2 and 4, but i have ordered this all motors in combo of 5 pieces and they sent me 5 but only one motor have logo on it i.e "17hs4401" and thats why i thought that they all are same and also having same wiring inside by the way thanks againby the robobuilder - General
pls watch the videoby the robobuilder - General
when i print something my extruder stepper motor starts to vibrate but doesnt move,so i i checked the driver and it is working now i disassemble the extruder motor and checked it using small 3 volt led (see attachment) so unfortunately led would not glow up so the question is how to repair my motor ????by the robobuilder - General
ok so when my temparature reaches to some degree then will it automaticaly stops heating?? or i have to send some commands to stops it???by the robobuilder - General
ok so i am getting jam in my nozzle and to solve this i have to heat the hotend first so i dont know how to heat only hotend without printing any object???by the robobuilder - General
ok i got the solution by deleting C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Slic3r - and delete all the files/folders file all are set.by the robobuilder - General
OK so i am working with setting on my slic3r 1.3.1dev and unfortunately i makes some wrong changes on my slic3r which i dont know how to revert back ?? so how to change slic3r 1.3.1 dev to default ???by the robobuilder - General
thanksby the robobuilder - General
THANKYOU VICTOR SIR FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND HELP KEEP DOING THIS THING BECAUSE SERVING TO MANKIND IS SERVING TO GOD AND MOST THANKS TO PIPER3D SIR, BECAUSE I FORGOT TO INSTALL JUMPER AND AFTER INSTALLING JUMPER BETWEEN DRIVER EVERYTHING WORKS FINE by the way one last question i.e. which slic3r version you have shown in your above picture pls tell me version???by the robobuilder - General
thankyou sir now i am going to try with that calculation i hope all things works well one more question before testing this There are many feedrates values in gcode like G1....F7800,G1.....F5000 etc and they are also different for X,Y,Z because there are thousands of line in gcodes so setting one feedrate in slicer is for which axis and how it effect feedrates from gcodes????by the robobuilder - General
sir i am using slicer 1.1.7 see the attachment and also i have one question "do installing jumper between all pins of pololu cause any ramps board damage like short circuit or etc??? and also i dont see any feedrate setting in your slicer too :/ I'm having this issue since last 17 days ONE THING THAT I NOTICE---whenever i manually send feedrates like G1 .....F5000(or any value) then my printerby the robobuilder - General
Anybody have an answer of this???by the robobuilder - General
ok sir i checked many times but i connot find any feedrates speed set in slicer (or may be i missed them??) i think the person those who created the gcodes have predefined the feedrates values in gcodes because whenever i convert STL--TO->>GCODE in slicer(no option to set feedrates) and after opening this file in pronterface and going to edit gcode option then there are feedrates like F780by the robobuilder - General
ok thanks sir for reply ok so in my ramps board i have 6 pins each of 2 pair between the drivers so should i install jumper to all those pins is it ok ??? and also is it not damage my board(i'm new to these electronics)???by the robobuilder - General
