High temperature print head-remove 260 degree lock


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited) · High temperature print head-remove 260 degree lock

Hello,

I need support from you guys, please!

I need to figure out how to increase printhead temp above to 260 centigrade. I know this limit is for safety reasons.

The max temp i need is 280 degree for printhead and 120 degree for heated bed.

I already have reinforced PTFE coupler (high grade material reinforced with fiber glass, wich is suposed to suport 280 degree without problem), and a silicone 120 watt 220 Volt heated bed with solid state relay.

in configuration.h if i modify temp values nothing happen, the temp for nozzle doesn't rise above 260 and for bed 105 degree.

#define HEATER_0_MAXTEMP 275

#define HEATER_1_MAXTEMP 275

#define HEATER_2_MAXTEMP 275

#define BED_MAXTEMP 130

I know the software measure curent and doesn't allow the nozzle heat above 260 degree ,same algaritm for bed.

Please help me, now i use ultimaker 2 jar jar wich let me to print in 265 degree for printhead and 115 for bed.

I need 280 degree for head and 120 degree for heated bed

Thank You for your support!

    Temp limit is always 15more than the highest you can use. So to use 280 set 295 on that maxtemp definitions

     

    I will try , but i am afraid it will be still locked at 260 , i will return here if it works, thank you for quick answer

      • 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.
