Re: Need a little help understanding the M163 G-code.
No so far I have not found anyone who has all 3 colors. I have not finished looking yet and will report back if I do. I saw a picture of a prototype Diamond hotend with 5 filaments. It looked like...

Five colors is great! They should go for watercooling instead of these huge heatsinks, tho. The mini hotend has already proven they don't have to be that tall. You have to use a huge fan to get enough...

View ArticleRe: Need a little help understanding the M163 G-code.
Not any luck so far finding a vendor that has all 3 colors. What I have found tends to be ABS not PLA and the diameter is usually 3.0 not 1.75. The Indian Summer colors sound interesting, I will take...

Awesome! What happens during tool change? Does the planner wait for the servo?
View ArticleRe: Dual Nozzle, Dual Stepper, Servo Actuated Nozzle - Marlin Settings?
Yep it does, in the existing Marline code, there is forced half second delay. A hardcoded magic number (delay(500)) on line 6792 of Marlin_main.cpp I'll post the relevent section from the marlin code...

If its extruding too much. Lower your 'Filament' Flow %. Mines set at 80% which I'm assuming lowers the amount extruded. Also, was it working perfect before but then started to skip or is this issue...
View ArticleRe: Both Sets of Z Endstop Pins as Z-Max?
If you have two independent Z steppers, you can use both endstops to home ( and align ) the bed separately. It's a feature in configuration_adv.h ( line 265 or so )

I solved the problem. I replace my extruder gear with a smaller one in diameter so the motor have more torque. And I loose a bit the tension on the spring and now runs perfecly. Thank you for advices...

I have an MK3 Alu heat bed with EPCOS 100k thermistor and covered with blue tape for adhesion. When I heat it up to 55 60 degree Celsius for PLA it takes a decent time to heat up, about 2:30 minutes...

Make sure that you have MAX_BED_POWER set to 255 (which normally should be, since it is the default). Other than that, I found that the following measures help speeding up the heating of the heat bed:...

Yeah your advice with increasing the voltage is working, now it heat up both the extruder at 250 and heat bed at 100 in 7 minutes rather than 7:45- 8:00. I can't increase more than 13.6V so..... I'll...
