slowmo since extruder upgrade

Posted (edited) · slowmo since extruder upgrade

hi

UM original (without plus) extruder upgrade to bondtech QR failed. After upgrading we added the settings into the start-gcode section in cura, everything started working in slowmo. Means that the head moves around 1mm/min.

Unfortunately the same with Z and E :-(

Of course we went back to the original extruder but, well, the slowmo problem still appears.

What we tried yet:

- flashed the fw about 5 times with the original one coming from cura 1.5

- removed ulticontroller and tried printing over usb

Sadly nothing helped out. Any ideas if we f.... up the controller ?

thx

    Somebody else needs to pitch in as I really don't know about the UMO, but on the UM2 the e-steps stay the same if you flash to a new firmware, except when you do a factory reset. So my guess is you messed up the e-steps settings, but you should be easily be able to change them back (again by g-code). On the UM2 is easy, you just do it by using tinkergnomes firmeware.

    Anybody able to tell the correct UMO esteps?

    He can do a restore factory settings, I don't remember the name of the option...

    Anyway always back to source, on github marlin for the original says:

    #define DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT {78.7402,78.7402,200.0*8/3,760*1.1} // default steps per unit for Ultimaker

    So 78.7402 for x/y 200.0 * 8?? For z (weird number...) and 760*1.1 for esteps

      • UltiMaker Cura 5.3 stable released
        In this stable release, Cura 5.3 achieves yet another huge leap forward in 3D printing thanks to material interlocking! As well as introducing an expanded recommended print settings menu and lots of print quality improvements. Not to mention, a whole bunch of new printer profiles for non-UltiMaker printers!

      • Here it is. The new UltiMaker S7
        The UltiMaker S7 is built on the success of the UltiMaker S5 and its design decisions were heavily based on feedback from customers.
         
         
        So what’s new?
        The obvious change is the S7’s height. It now includes an integrated Air Manager. This filters the exhaust air of every print and also improves build temperature stability. To further enclose the build chamber the S7 only has one magnetically latched door.
         
        The build stack has also been completely redesigned. A PEI-coated flexible steel build plate makes a big difference to productivity. Not only do you not need tools to pop a printed part off. But we also don’t recommend using or adhesion structures for UltiMaker materials (except PC, because...it’s PC). Along with that, 4 pins and 25 magnets make it easy to replace the flex plate perfectly – even with one hand.
         
        The re-engineered print head has an inductive sensor which reduces noise when probing the build plate. This effectively makes it much harder to not achieve a perfect first layer, improving overall print success. We also reversed the front fan direction (fewer plastic hairs, less maintenance), made the print core door magnets stronger, and add a sensor that helps avoid flooding.
         

         
        The UltiMaker S7 also includes quality of life improvements:
        Reliable bed tilt compensation (no more thumbscrews) 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi A 1080p camera (mounted higher for a better view) Compatibility with 280+ Marketplace materials Compatibility with S5 project files (no reslicing needed) And a whole lot more  
        Curious to see the S7 in action?
        We’re hosting a free tech demo on February 7.
        It will be live and you can ask any questions to our CTO, Miguel Calvo.

      • UltiMaker Cura Alpha 🎄 Tree Support Spotlight 🎄
        Are you a fan of tree support, but dislike the removal process and the amount of filament it uses? Then we would like to invite you to try this special release of UltiMaker Cura. Brought to you by our special community contributor @thomasrahm
         
        We generated a special version of Cura 5.2 called 5.3.0 Alpha + Xmas. The only changes we introduced compared to UltiMaker Cura 5.2.1 are those which are needed for the new supports. So keep in mind, this is not a sneak peek for Cura 5.3 (there are some really cool new features coming up) but a spotlight release highlighting this new version of tree supports.
