This may have already been covered but on my Up mini if i set the quality to fine, ie the print head moves slower the ripples go. If I set it to standard or fast the ripples come back. My feeling there is some backlash somewhere, wear in the linear bearings or a part of the machine that is not as rigid as it should be. The ripples will always occur after a change in direction but only where aby d3delta3d - General
Quotevreihen As much as I think the Duet is a nice piece of kit, buying one on the promises of features that do not exist today is a risk. Smoothieboard is 32-bit, has mature delta support including auto-calibration, includes a built-in web server, has software-adjustable stepper driver currents, and supports 5 steppers on the board natively. The pitfalls are that the native LCD support has beeby d3delta3d - Delta Machines
Remember also since the cutting blade will be on a pivot you have to start each cut away from the target line to allow the blade to spin around to the correct position. This will need to be just over the diameter of the blade sweep.by d3delta3d - Developers
Thanks for the detailed responc DC42. The 4.3" display would certainly add the wow factor to the printer as well as being functional. As for blown drivers I have plenty of solder paste so no biggy. Quite satisfying soldering smt chipsby d3delta3d - Delta Machines
QuoteAndyCart You might want to consider putting the majority of the hot end above the effector rather than below to gain that much more Z height Very good idea thanks. Would gain another 40mm .by d3delta3d - Delta Machines
Quotedc42I have seen several people comment that Arduino Mega barely has the power to do the delta calculations, especially if you are trying to drive an LCD. So I suggest you go for one of the 32-bit controllers.Next month you will have another 32-bit board to choose from, because I am adding Delta support to the firmware for the Duet electronics. I was just reading that last night about the 8-by d3delta3d - Delta Machines
Hi All After much reading and research I have taken the plunge and am building a Delta printer and though I would document the build to give back to the community. I work with Autodesk Inventor 2015 which really makes life easy for this type of project and have settled on a build volume of 280mm diameter x 450mm high. I think this will cover almost everything I will ever print and is much largby d3delta3d - Delta Machines
