Hello Everyone, I have a semi weird question, I have a 3D printer that has an issue with the hot end, I would like to convert it to a foam cnc. The question I have will the repetier firmware work as with cnc by all rights I can see it should but not sure if there will have to be modification to the firmware to make it function in this manner. Any guidance or advise in this would be greatly appby romaytech - Repetier
Hello All, I want to thank everyone for their input in helping me with this. It turns out I had a lot of issues with this, 1. I had the extruder feeding the wrong direction so that is what causing the filament coming out the side of the extruder. 2. The X, Y, and Z feed rates were incorrect. So as of right now it is looking good, have to do a little more tweaking but it printed a 20mm teby romaytech - Repetier
Hello, Ok I ran an extruder test here is the results: - Clicked slow extrude 100 in Repetier - Measured the total distance on extruded materiel 39cm = 390mm This does sound way too high, correct me if I am wrong it should be closed to 100mm where would I look for the steps per mm in the firmware. I tried changing this in Configuration.h : #define EXT0_STEPS_PER_MM 370 I have tried loweby romaytech - Repetier
Hello, Thank you, I am new to 3d printers so I apologize for not posting more info. Filament diameter in your slicer? : 1.75 Tip size in your slicer? : .5 just realized the tips size that came with it is .3 so changed it and going to test it now (changing it did not work, actually worse would not print first layer) Steps/mm in your config? Have you tested 100mm extrusion for accuracy with tby romaytech - Repetier
Hello, I can really use some help. I am currently using what I believe is is Bowden extrude but I am having issues with it. It appears to be trying to feed too fast and will push the filament out of the feeder OR start skipping on the filament and snap it, I have tried changing settings in the configuration.h file, tried changing EEPROM settings, and also tried changing settings in Repieterby romaytech - Repetier
Hello All I am hoping that someone can point me in the direction to add an 320X240 lcd to my Ramps v1.4. It is for the Arduino Uno and uses ILI9341 driver and SPI. I am guessing for now I would just need information on what pins to use on the ramps that might make this possible. It uses the following pins on the Arduino Uno: Pins Used for TFT Screen Control: D4 : TF_CS, SD card select input pby romaytech - RAMPS Electronics
