fuchs 0 Posted October 10, 2012 in Temperaturechange while printing? Observation / Feature idea I noticed that printing with lower temperatures and retraction is a good way to get rid of the pesky stringing, as the filament doesn't "drip" that much and therefore the retraction has less to worry about. But a low temperature limits the speed with which the hotend can melt the filament, as the filament needs higher temperatures for higher speeds (or?). So maybe it would be a good idea to vary the temperature a bit between "layers in which much retraction occurs" and layers "with much area to fill". Does that sound somehow plausible?

Daid 260 Posted October 10, 2012 in Temperaturechange while printing? It sounds plausible, but an algorithm for that would require a lot of tweaking and configuring. Also, temperature changes take a while, so you would also have to account for that. Maybe, someday in the future we will have this capability. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
