Hi All, So I'm looking into setting up a stepper motor controller circuit, and I just wanted to compare the voltage that my reprap fisher 3D printer uses for the axises, to use as a starting point. I've got a copy of the schematics, and it suggests that the DC voltage from the mains is what is used - mine is rated at 19v @ ~3A. The stepper that it uses is rated for 3.3V, does this mean that theby tblitzy - General
I've got the printer head in pieces now, and when I manual feed the filament through the radiator/nozzle, it doesn't feed smooth. The point that the bowden tube touches the nozzle (inside the radiator) is a point of resistance.....is this the issue?by tblitzy - Fisher
Quoterogerdiver I don't if you have been following the Bowden tube thread? Your symptoms sound just like mine. In my case the tube being properly seated in the radiator. Once figured out every now works. Below is my last remarks copied from that thread. Perhaps might help? Paul rogerdiver [ PM ] Re: Issues with bowden feed...

Thanks for that response Oremrod168, correct me if I'm wrong but I thought the Fisher already had a part cooler inbuild (as part of the filament cooler). Are you saying that it is insufficient to stop this curling effect?by tblitzy - Fisher
Sorry for the delay in response. So I've tried 200oc and 190oc, and I am unable to see much of an improvement, the tops of the window/door still have burs. The top surface still has the same gaps, and the chimeny is still bulging. I was going to try your idea pixelseventy2, and reduce the speeds of everything, but my printer has run into an issue - it happens quite a bit really, when printing thby tblitzy - Fisher
The filament is PLA, but I'll give 190 a go and see how well it works. I guess this will improve the bridging, might it also improve the gaps between prints seen on the top surface?by tblitzy - Fisher
QuoteDADIY You could try reducing the temperature and reducing speed. Some people also recommend printing to st a time to give the other one more time to cool down. The official slic3r profile for fisher is on git hub here I'm currently using the official profile for fisher, which speed/temp setting should I change, also how much should I reduce it by. Also JamesK the printer has no part coby tblitzy - Fisher
Whoops, sorry just found that there is a specific forum for the Fisher delta printer. How do I move this post to that forum?by tblitzy - Fisher
Hi Everyone, So, I've just gotten my hands on a RepRapPro Fisher 3D printer. Apart from a few issues with the extruder (slipping every now and again), which I think I've fixed, its printing alright. What I'm looking into now is getting the settings correct for Slic3r, so I've printed a few 3DBenchy (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:763622) so as to test some settings. I'm having a few difficultiby tblitzy - Fisher
