I meant to say $300,000+ of Precision Machining Equipment, Precision Measuring equipment and a lot of professional software students and schools have access to, as well as several other industrial manufacturing machines. Software development is not my area of expertise.by NoSkillzEngineer - Robots!
This is Freeform Fabrication for the future. Once Strong AI is integrated into this, this will undoubtedly be a big part of the future....for that reason, it must be open source. I have access to some pretty high precision servos from Faulhaber Motors, who sponsor our Hackerspace/Makerspace. Servo motors and hall effect sensors (encoder) are fairly new to me, however, with the amount of thby NoSkillzEngineer - Robots!
I forgot to update this! Wow. I'm a jerk. I got it working! I tried using two tiny Nema17's off amazon to drive my z axis. That didn't work either! Before that, my layer height was just....terrible. Many clogged nozzles, burnt stepper motor driver, 3 different types of z-Axis lead screws, two different z/x ends...and I think $700 later? I think, maybe $800 haha. We're good though, I made A LOT ofby NoSkillzEngineer - Prusa i3 and variants
QuoteFA-MAS I'd unplug the hotend cartridge wires from the RAMPS, leave thermistor plugged in If you have it unplugged, it shouldn't run away on you, it should read the room temperature If it still goes MAXTEMP, I'd check to make sure the thermistor wires aren't shorted (exposed wire touching each other) It could also be a bad thermistor If it seems fine without the hotend cartridge plugged in,by NoSkillzEngineer - Prusa i3 and variants
I'm using an [3D Cam] metal V6 J-Head hot end with an NTC3950 Thermistor that I bought off amazon: [3D CAM] Metal J-Head V6 Hot End for RepRap 3D Printer 1.75mm Filament Direct Feed Extruder 0.4mm Nozzle (overpaid, but not crying over spilled milk) and this was an answer asking about Marlin settings: A: This is "100k beta 3950 1% thermistor (4.7k pullup)", TEMP_SENSOR number 11 in Marlin coby NoSkillzEngineer - Prusa i3 and variants
Okay! Thank you! That's all I need to know. Thank you so much!by NoSkillzEngineer - Prusa i3 and variants
I had it working, and one of my end stops weren't tight enough and the X axis kept moving so I frantically tried to cancel the print, it was less than successful.... After fiddling with the damage and swapping the end stop, now it says my min temp for the hot end was triggered. The hot end fluctuates at room temperature but doesn't reach over 25° C .......What did I do?by NoSkillzEngineer - Prusa i3 and variants
End stops are getting the best of me as well, nearly there. Stay positive, good luck! I'm learning the how to as well, nothing but encouragement from me at this pointby NoSkillzEngineer - Prusa i3 and variants
Thank you, I have not had to resize photos before. I paid a guy locally to make what I thought at the time was just the essentials, again I should have swallowed my pride and bought a kit. Did I have the technical skills to dive into this....hellllll no! But the fastest way to learn is through a mistake, I have also made this my school work, my hobby, and my job. To say I have learned a lot inby NoSkillzEngineer - Prusa i3 and variants
Hi all, I am extremely new to reprap. With less than two months experience, I have struggled more than I care to admit spending more than I care to admit in because I boldly....and ignorantly claimed I could do this no problem. Murphy's Law has kicked my butt along with my own ignorance of all this. It's a lot to take in, and I've learned a lot quickly. Just to give a perspective, I went from knby NoSkillzEngineer - Prusa i3 and variants
