Hi Bob,
Thnx, I put the feeder on the right which made it possible to put the steppenmoter inside the UM and it provides easy acces for changing fillement. I wanted it to be compact because I use the machine in the Ikea fabrikor cabinet. An UM fits perfectly in this (http://www.ikea.com/nl/nl/catalog/products/20242277/), you only have to change the fillament rol to the bottom instead of the back.
And yes Cura 3.0.4 seems to work well, I will test it more thoroughly in the upcoming Christmas holiday's with more materials etc.
Hi Joris!
Is it easy to change the filament on the printer?
And is the cabinet air-tight?
Thanks.

That looks great! ... But my birthday was in June!
How did you get the chocolate out of the molds again? Did you make a flexible mold?
Hi @SandervG
Yes, my friends made a flexible mold

The UMO uses an Arduino based Mainboard.
For firmware questions, I will refer you to @lowiekvds
He made the firmware changes, and is an Arduino expert!

Why are the acceleration and Jerk settings so low on the standard Mark2 profile?
There's no special reason (at least not that i'm aware of). AFAIK this are the standard formulas that Cura uses, if acceleration or jerk control is enabled. You can disable it in Cura, if you want. Mark2 works with the standard values of the printer as well.
What's the reason of your question? Did you noticed any serious drawbacks related to these values?
As you already know, we are building an UMO with Mark2 upgrade but we have a problem.
The first thing I've checked were the Cura settings... But that's not the problem...
Any other idea @tinkergnome?

What’s the acceleration/jerk settings? Maybe jerk is way too low than the 20 default?
I have also printed with the standard UM2 slicer settings, so that's not the problem...
I mean that you check the firmware default accel/jerk settings. But indeed it’s weird
Delfaut accel: 3000 and delfaut jerk: 20
So that's okay...

An unrelated note: you should not use the Mark2 definition for single extrusion prints... This start-gcode is not quite suitable...
Besides that: the gcode file seems to be usable with a normal UM2, if someone is willing to... (just to rule out some things).
Thanks for your reply! Okay, good to know
I will try the Gcode on my UM2E+...
Gcode works perfectly on UM2E+... So the problem is on the firmware side...

I would check the gcode to see how many movements/second are happening there. That's the classic effect of the board stuttering the planner. If that happens again if you slow down the speed to 50% then it could be other thing.
I seen this behavior also happening on latest s3d 4.0, it has a bug that inserts lots of small extra extrusions making the buffer stutter.
Problem is not solved with slower speed...

Here you have the Gcode. I will test it with the lower speed...

Normally Cura wil overwrite your current Cura files and wil keep your settings, profiles and printers. If you want to keep the 2 versions, you can copy the files in Programs > Cura > Contests > Resources > resources > map of the files you want to copy...

Hi,
Do you have the newest Cura version? (2.6.2)
You can download it here
Pleas let me know if your problem is solved!
-
Hi,
Try to remove Cura from your computer. Then go to your Program files to remove the Cura folder. And then you can reinstall Cura 2.6...
Let me know if it works now!

Hi everyone!
We have a problem with our project where we working on.
We are trying to make the Mark2 upgrade compatible with the UMO.
No worries, We wil publish it online when it works completely!
So this is the problem:
The printer makes very slow movements in the curves.
We had to translate the UM2 firmware to the UMO mainboard so, I think the problem is on the Firmware side...
Thanks!
Have a nice day!

We've made the UM2 firmware compatible with the UMO with RepRap Discount LCD.
More info coming soon!
A big thanks to LowiekVDS for rewriting the firmware.
That is great indeed. One quick question. I am not familiar with the RepRap Discount LCD (googling it looks like it is an 128x64 dot matrix display. And here is my question, I assume I do not need the controller for such a board if I already have an ulticontroller. So would your port work with an umo (1.5.3) and an ulticontroller, where an 128x64 dot matrix is connected?
If so that lcd as an example would be suitable.

Thanks again and cheers
Hi @greengecko
The idea is that you can use the UM2 interface and functionality on the UMO mainboard with a cheap Reprap Display.
We have only made the UM2 firmware compatible with the UMO mainboard and RepRap Discount Display.
So its possible that your display assembly will work but we are not sure. The UltiController is very expensive, so the cheapest option is to buy an Reprap display...
When there is something else not clear, let me know!

Today, The new regulator has arrived. I immediately soldered him to the mainboard.
Now it is waiting for the new power supply @neatherbot Thanks for the video!

So It would be possible to do the Mark2 upgrade on the UMO with the TinkerGnome firmware!

That's nice! Also it would allow to um2 users to use the cheap lcd screens instead of the 80€+ um2 screen.
Great job!
Thanks, Yes indeed!
Stay tuned, and get the display for your UMO! We will publish the firmware online

No, it is the wrong type, it is made for a thermocouple, not for a RTD (resistance thermometer) like the PT100.
And are there alternatives?
-
The UMO amplifier is designed for a thermocouple.
For an RTD (PT100) you really need the E3D amplifier.
The E3D amplifier is very expensive with shipping and taxes...
Will it work with this?
Empty spools!

Hi Ultimaker Community!
I have a short, easy question that everyone needs to know an answer to.
Thanks for your time!
