    Ultimaker Software Modifications

    in Improve your 3D prints

    I upgraded the ultimaker software with the default machine settings (start and end code with Marlin G code flavour) and then I installed the Marlin.

    I did the same with the exception that I reduced the purging and retraction by 90%. 

    However, I did not notice any difference.

     

    The gcode is generated by me since I want to build something simple.

     

    From the Ultimaker, I need the x-y-z movement and the extrusion. Not the other features (heating etc).

    Thanks @tinkergnome ! The steps are now fixed.

     

    I disabled the retraction using the command M209 S0 & changing the advanced setting in ultimaker (length & speed of retraction equal to zero) but I did not manage to disable the pre-printing (filament purge before starting the printing). I changed the machine settings by deleting the commands at the beginning and the end of the program. Then I upgraded the firmware through cura and afterwards, I installed the Marlin. However, I did not see any difference.

    Do you know why this is happening?

     

    Thanks a lot for your help!

    Hi @tinkergnome ! 

    I changed the software successfully! Thank you a lot!

     

    I have a couple of questions. I am trying to change the steps per unit of the extruder 

    DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT   {80.0,80.0,200,282}

    However, even if I change the 282 to 0.282, I can not see any difference. Do you know why?

    Also, I tried to disable the heater-thermistor by set the TEMP_SENSOR_1 equal to 0. 

    However, the heater warms according to the custom material even if in the gcode I do not set the temperature of the extruder's heater.

    Do you know if I can disable the heater of the extruder?

     

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello everyone!

    I am making modifications in an Ultimaker 2+ in order to build a 3D Bioprinter. I need to remove completely the heated platform but when I do it, I get error messages. Also, I have to change the height of the printing platform since when I switch on the Ultimaker my extruder (it's modified and longer) hits the platform. This is happening before the calibration of the printing platform. I was thinking that I have to make some small changes in the software of the Ultimaker but I couldn't find the software. What do you suggest?

     

    Thanks,

    Andi
