Re: My own H-bot with Fishing line concept. - 10 years ago

Thanks you very much :-) The thinks I like the most is the ratio overall size and total build size. For the moment the dyneema breaded fishing line are OK. But there is only 30hours of printing + 40hours of dry movement. For releasing all files no problems at all, I just need time for learn git process, I don't like the way thingiverse goes... Or another options for releasing some solidwor

My own H-bot with Fishing line concept. - 10 years ago

Hello, I have design and draw my own H-Bot 3d printer. The overall dimension is 390x340x340mm for a build size of 245x200x200mm. So for some characteristics: -Bosch-rexroth 20x20 aluminium profile for the frame. -Fishing line breaded Dyneema, with cheap Vgroove bearing bought on Ebay. -And Two toothed pullet from an Qu-bd extruder. (they don't grip on ABS/PLA filament but are very good for fis

Re: Commercial H-bot? - 10 years ago

So it's not an commercial H-bot, it's only my own current design H-bot not finish but the first mouvement was really good for the futur. For the moment my choice was to waiting to get all things work together for posting all files on the big internet in an open-source project. You can check some info there: It's the thread of Polygonhell. I will post some more info or even new thread depend o

Re: HBot using fishing line - 10 years ago

Hello, For info, I will post many more information on another thread if somebody is interested (x-y axe file are made with solidworks, Z axe with Inventor, and some with freecad... do not asking me why, it's just because it's depend what software is installed on the computer who are in the front of me :-D ... ) It's not at all screw effective (but screw price can't be less cheap for me so I don'

Re: Alternate Print Surfaces Skate Board Grip Tape - 10 years ago

Hello, The only problem i can see is an abrasive problem. A Z axis to low and you can go buying a new nozzle :-\ But the idea of rought surface is not so bad... Maybe small sandpaper (1200/800gr) can work.its a little less abrasive.

3D printer on official music clip!!!! - 10 years ago

Hello, Today, visiting YouTube and more precisely the new Will.I.Am and britney Spears video clip. I can see a MakerBot Replicator 2, maybe 3-4 times printing Will.I.Am head! I was funny to see a low cost printer (compared to Stratasys/fortus/Zcorp) even if it's not a opensource project anymore in an official Video Clip with 40millions views on youTube and so much on music TV station. Ie: I'm

Re: Problem Reloading Filament During Print - 10 years ago

I have the same problem before I understand what marlin/pronterface waiting. I thing you reversing some millimeters (example: 20mm), and after you extruding 50mm for have some filament goes outside the nozzle. So I don't know if it's a marlin/pronterface waiting but when you push resume, I will immediatelly reverse 30mm of filament (50mm - 20mm). So the solution for me was to reverse filament a

Re: Enable cooling fan when starting to heat extruder. - 10 years ago

FInally I have take your code with minor add. in temperature.cpp line 314 change with: if((current_raw > minttemp) && (current_raw < maxttemp)) { soft_pwm = (int)pid_output >> 1; #ifdef EXTRUDERFAN_PIN int current_temper = analog2temp(current_raw, e); if(current_temper > EXTRUDERFAN_DEC) { pinMode(EXTRUDERFAN_PIN, OUTPUT);

Re: Enable cooling fan when starting to heat extruder. - 10 years ago

Hello, Thanks for your reply, Yersterday, I have added the Spinter code in marlin for add this functionnality instead of remove controllerFan option. (thanks brddl ) And the fan pin goes on only when the temperature of the extruder is above a configured temperature. My only problem is that the new gcc-avr/libc-avr package in debian don't compile the code with arduino 1.0.1 !!! Need to check h

Enable cooling fan when starting to heat extruder. - 10 years ago

Hello, I don't know if it's the right topic ... and I use Marlin. For the moment I use M42 for enabling a fan when I start to heat my extruder. But there is a special line for enable a pin (digital or analog) for starting a fan for cooling the barrel only when I start heating the extruder? - Put a fan in parallel of the heating circuit is not really good when you use PID. - I often forget to

Re: Not enought filament at new line. - 11 years ago

Yes it's an retractation problem. Without retractation I don't have this problem but I have some blob. And I want One slic3r rule for all kind of work/piece. So I have put M204 S300.00 T50.00 and YES!!! no more problems, retractation work and no blob :-D ie: it's work only with high definition (between 0.1 and 0.24 layer high)

Re: Not enought filament at new line. - 11 years ago

It's already the case for the retractation. In slic3r the parameter for the minimum travel between retractation is set to 2mm... Need to increase this value? for the moment the retractation speed is set to 20mm/s, to high or to low i don't know ...

Re: Not enought filament at new line. - 11 years ago

I reply to me. I think a have found. The M204 was set to low. The result seem correct now... but if you have another proposal ...

Not enought filament at new line. (SOLVED) - 11 years ago

Hello, First I have an makerbot mk7, slic3r, marlin. So I have down and up all parameters one by one (speed, accel, temp) with no good result. I can't find why the start of each line have not enought filament. I have check that it is not slipping or stringing or mechanical problem. I don't think I have stupid parameters for retractation (1mm at 15mm) And I hope that the picture can help you.
