Re: Variation of CoreXY cinematic, how to name it ? - 3 years ago
Hey Alvon, Certainly is a nice looking design you make, and have thought about distinct uses, however I feel this is almost a DrawBot with a Z axis added... I made a similar mech to move a tube around for a sorting machine, in the photo it is still lying on the table, but it will have the nearest 2040 removed and the ends of the Y axis fit between the legs of the "table", the end of the X axis iby andymidtf - Developers
Re: Exoslide Core XY with "trough" down the middle of the bed? - 3 years ago
Given that a flat surface across the bed measures differences on the bed itself, I ask the sale as DDentist, is the glass flat? Easiest way to tel lis rotate it 90º (you have a square bed?), and test again, if the issue repeats now in X axis trough, then try turning the glass over, the other side may be flatter... (glass made by "floating" is not normally calibrated, and will have differences ofby andymidtf - Reprappers
Re: Hot End Heating Up When Power Turned On - 8 years ago
Hi David, My Duet has just developed this issue, but the way it did it was really strange: powered up the printer and from the DuePanel sent the hotend to heat up to 180ºC, to load filament - it went past 180ºC, the temp indicater showed purple (never seen it that color, only yellow and red) - I shut down the printer, powered on a couple of seconds later (to avoid letting heat rise up to the colby andymidtf - Duet
Re: State of PET filament printing - 9 years ago
QuoteSlowFoot I just tried some PETG from RepRap.me, My impression is that it takes a lot of energy to melt. The hot end temperature take a noticeable dip when the printing starts and at higher temperatures it struggle to keep up. Anyone noticed something similar? EDIT: I print on unheated BuildTak and it stick reasonably well but not as good as PLA, Cheers! Insulate your hot end - ideally a wby andymidtf - General
