How did you attach your X and Y endstops? Peterby peterv3210 - CoreXY Machines

I modified the belt-clamp because I was struggling to get the belt tensioned without slipping out of the belt-clamps, now it cannot slip anymore.by peterv3210 - CoreXY Machines
Hi, My Prusa i3 delivers a very good print quality but I just can't get the quality right when i'm printing with white filament. Although the filament is from the same manufacturer, i know that there can be differences in print temperature and i tried lowering and increasing the temperature but that just doesn't help. Any ideas? Peterby peterv3210 - Printing
Hi, I was wondering what would be a better option for my new printer. A power supply with a active (built-in fan) or a passive cooling (perforated sheet) ? Peterby peterv3210 - Safety & Best Practices
I think i figured it out... Turned out that DEFAULT_XYJERK was to high. #define DEFAULT_XYJERK 20.0 // (mm/sec) I changed it to 10 and now although the printer shakes vigorously when doing the zig-zag movements it does not lose track of itself. I hope this works for you to. Peterby peterv3210 - Printing
Hi, I too am experiencing a shift in my Y axes. It started out of the blue, my printer was running without any problems for months. @Richard: I think you're right with the zig-zag motion. In one of my prints it starts on the same point every time (See the attached image), like it couldn't cope with the tiny rapid movements. Can it be that when the movements are smaller than the degrees of whatby peterv3210 - Printing
Hello, I was wondering... Instead of those two (fairly expensive) aluminium plates, couldn't you just use 4 smaller 2020 profile parts to mount the heatbed on? See attached file. Peterby peterv3210 - CoreXY Machines
Yep! That was the solution, Thanks!by peterv3210 - Delta Machines
Thanks Hercek, That was indeed the issue. What is the difference between enabling and disabling the eeprom? And how can i set the correct eeprom value?by peterv3210 - Delta Machines
Hi, When configuring my kossel i set the feedrates to 200. But after uploading and restarting the controller it displays feedrate 2 (Controller Menu: Configuration/Feedrate)? #define MAX_FEEDRATE_X 200 #define MAX_FEEDRATE_Y 200 #define MAX_FEEDRATE_Z 200 #define HOMING_FEEDRATE_X 200 #define HOMING_FEEDRATE_Y 200 #define HOMING_FEEDRATE_Z 200 Is this normal or am i doing something wrong?

Seemed to be a endstop problem with the z min endstop. Now my question is do i disable this z min endstop completely and what will be the effect on the z-probe/auto-level when i do this? Will it still work when i set the z-probing to use the z-min-endstop? Thanks in advance, Peterby peterv3210 - Delta Machines
Changed the max z feedrate but it didn't change anything.by peterv3210 - Delta Machines
Hi Reprappers, I switched to the Repetier Firmware for my large Kossel. But now the Z-tower will not move down. it goes up when homing en shows in the display X:0 Y:0 Z:373. But i won't come down. In Repetier it shows the Z height in red as soon as it get changed. I changed the motors and the motor-drivers but that didn't solve anything, so it must be in the config: I don't know if this is corby peterv3210 - Delta Machines
Hi Reprappers, I build a fairly large Kossel ±75cm high, with a Z travel height of 37.3 mm. When i move the hot end down 100mm, it travels 12.3mm. I just can not find where to change this. Hope someone can help, Peterby peterv3210 - Delta Machines
I found this marlin firmware: https://github.com/jcrocholl/Marlin Haven't been able to test is yet but it compiles without errorsby peterv3210 - Printing
Hello Reprappers, I'm building a large Kossel and i'm at the point of uploading the marlin firmware, but when i do i get the following error. planner.cpp: In function 'void plan_buffer_line(const float&, const float&, const float&, const float&, float, const uint8_t&)': planner.cpp:663: error: 'DISABLE_INACTIVE_EXTRUDER' was not declared in this scope When uploading with thby peterv3210 - Printing
Ok... I changed some things. Homing position is now in the front left corner of the heatbed. X moves left towards left min endstop Y moves back towards back min endstop Z moves down towards bottom min endstop This all works without issues but... I don't know if this is right but all the axis use positive values (i.e. +1.23) when homing to all min endstops?? And when i select the testcube gcoby peterv3210 - Printing
Hi, I asked this question too in general but that seems not to be the right forum for it (that can be deleted). Currently i'm building a Prusa i3 with Marlin firmware and i'm on the verge of printing but for some reason i can't get my homing right. When I + the X axis it moves to the left (endstop is on the left). When I + the Y axis it moves towards me (endstop is my side). When I + the Z axiby peterv3210 - Printing
Hi, Currently I'm on the verge of printing but for some reason i can't get my homing right. When I + the X axis it moves to the left (endstop is on the left). When I + the Y axis it moves towards me (endstop is my side). When I + the Z axis it goes down (endstop in on the bottom). When i home the printer is homes nicely and stays in the corners.

Hi, I'm building my Prusa i3 with gadgets3d electronics (RAMPS 1.4 with G3D driver). At the moment i'm calibrating the machine and all motors are working except the extruder motor. It just won't turn not even when i increase the voltage. I switched the motor to an axis and then it turns. I also tried to switch the stepper drivers but that didn't change anything. So i know the stepper driver andby peterv3210 - General
