Okay thank you I will keep this in mind. Is there anywhere people share Cura profiles that work well with different printers?

Yes I guess that makes sense. okay good to know I will do some test printing slower. Thanks

Thats great thanks, I must admit I though that the S5 could run quicker than that consider what speed we can run our Prusa at. I will look into the axle alignments as well thank you.

That seems extremely slow, considering the S5 is meant to be an professional 3D printer and presets in Cura is set at no lower than 50mm/s. We also use a Prusa 3D printer which prints very well at 60mm/s. Is that really how slow you need to run an S5?

Hello, We are having some issues with the prints coming off our S5 machine. It has been getting progressively worse with each print. We have swapped out the material for brand new PLA from Ultimaker and also tried swapping to a new print head and calibrating it. The issues is the print surface is very rough and appears to have lots of what seems to be vibrations running through it. I have tried slowing the print speed down and adjusting jerk and acceleration but it still happens. We actually have two S5 machines and it seems to be happening on both Settings used are - Layer height 0.2 Walls/Top and Bottom 0.8 Infill 15% Speed 60-65 Jerk 30 Acceleration 4000 Any help with this would be greatly appreciated Thanks
