Re: New marlin customisation problems - 5 years ago
#define Z_MIN_PROBE_ENDSTOP_INVERTING false // set to same logic as "Z_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING". It appears to me your are calculating for a NEMA 17 0.9° Stepper. Hictop 3DP08 has the following // Typical stepper motors have 200 steps per full step/rev = 1.8°/step, so 1/16 microstepping = STEPS_PER_REVOLUTION_E = 3200 // X-Y Axis 3200, / 20 tooth, / 2mm pitch = 200*16 / 20 / 2 = 80 :: (STEPS_by Roberts_Clif - Firmware - Marlin

Re: stampa con pallini e fili - 5 years ago
QuoteCencio By the way, I can not "clean" the print out of these imperfections, assuming the problem is highlighted with the white ABS, while with the PLA all fine. Wires are formed and in some places the material is either missing, causing small holes, or is excessive, causing balls. I tried to change the temperature, the speed, the amount of extruded material, and the extrusion parameters, espeby Roberts_Clif - Problemi e qualità di stampa
Re: Can I upgrade my RepRap Mendel for auto bed leveling? - 5 years ago
The RepRap Melzi v2.0 does support Auto Leveling. Marlin 1.1 Newest released will support your controller. The Arduino IDE’s will support Window, Mac or Linux . The Arduino IDE May need to have added support. As per Wiki And now my opinion of this endeavor. I had just purchased a Hictop 3DP11 and it took forever to get it to print faithfully. So when the time came that I wanted to upgrade, to aby Roberts_Clif - General

Re: Hictop 3DP-20 (Creality CR-10 3D printer in sheeps clothing?) - 5 years ago
Heard about the HICTOP CR-10 3D Printer Prusa I3 DIY Kit or 3DP-20, Print build 300x300x400. The first thing I noticed was the Controller and Extruder assembly were inside a metal shield. This is good for EFI protection which the other Hictop models desperately Need. After reading the assembly instructions was not impressed, it was by far the easiest DIY Printer to assembly but somehow lacking.by Roberts_Clif - Prusa i3 and variants

Re: Bed levelling issues - 5 years ago
Filament always drizzles out, it is just a fact of life that we have learned to live with. 1st you will need a pair of tweezers it remove the dangling filament just before it starts to print. Bed leveling is an art, and before you learn how, you will crash the head into the bed several times, have your off switch in your hands until you get proficient. The first step is to slowly raise the z-axiby Roberts_Clif - Prusa i3 and variants
Re: Filament Runout Sensor Issue Hictop Prusa I3 - 5 years ago
I do not know what software comes with Hictop 3DP11. I bought Both my 3D Printer Used, as the Original owners could not get them to work.

This is exactly what was happening to both my Hictop's I found a solution for my Hictop's filament run-out sensor and other problems read the link supplied EFI Shielding nothing ventured nothing gained. sounds strange but with only a simple test you will know for sure. In the attached pictures I found a old case and just slid it over the controller held on by duct tape, as a test to prove thaby Roberts_Clif - Printing
Re: Wiring Harnesses - 5 years ago
I have made a EFI Shield for Hictop Aluminum Printers download from Tinker-cad below Hictop Controller Cover Make a trip to your local hardware store and purchase a roll of Aluminum Duct Tape about $4.00. 1. What is required is to print the Above case or one of your own design. 2. Cover all areas inside the Printed case Include a least one screw for GND. Making sure you cut out all the holes.by Roberts_Clif - General
Re: Wiring Harnesses - 5 years ago
Have just measured a voltage difference of 599mv from ground to the Extruder stepper motor case will try grounding and return the MLCD2005 Display back on top. The voltage is originating from the nozzle heater as there is a voltage difference of 6mv from the nozzle to the stepper motor case. Being is such close proximity to the MLCD2004 this indeed may lead to a solution. The X-Axis stepper doesby Roberts_Clif - General
Re: Wiring Harnesses - 5 years ago
Well I was mistaken. Still have problems with the SD card Reader on the Hictop 3DP12. It is really strange. Can take the 3 Controllers and the 3 LCD2004 displays and get them all to work correctly on my Hictop 3DP11 that has a 12v at 20 amp supply. Now here is my dilemma if I take any of the cards connect it too my 3DP12 which has a (1) 24v 15 amp power supply it errors only when the LCD is attby Roberts_Clif - General
Wiring Harnesses - 5 years ago
Have been using my 1st 3D printer now for 8 months, the last time I upgraded the software was months ago. Just purchase a 2nd Hictop Aluminum 270X220X190 build area. I started getting erratic printing, on my Brand New 24V Hictop from day one, after some time and dozens on bad prints, starting diagnosing the errors that were happening . The errors were many and happened on an unscheduled basis, tby Roberts_Clif - General
