Re: Taz 5 Aerostruder

I don't know yet, but I'm ordering a Aerostruder for my Taz 6 and we'll see in a few days... Let me know if you have any updates and I'll do the same. Thanks!

Re: Perimeter Paths

Thank you for your testing, Franzel.

It would be nice if we could enter a "debug" mode in S3D to allow real-time modifications of the FFF that would regenerate new g-code for the next layer. See: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5477.

Re: Perimeter Paths

Another possible solution would be to setup a coast multiplier for internal or perimeter travel. That is, we could configure a certain amount of coast on internal perimeters to widen the gap and prevent the blob.

Re: Perimeter: 2x Thickness?

Do you really mean width?? I would think printing the perimeters at twice the normal width would be a very bad thing. You usually want to print with the smallest width you can on your perimeters, since that has a big impact on the detail and accuracy of your outer surface. Yes, I meant width. You'r...

Re: Perimeter Paths

Did you try 3.1. I suffer exactly from the same problem and feel that 3.1 has some improvements especially when disabling retraction at layer change. When you share the STL of your object I will try myself. Yes, this is all with 3.1 (support for Taz 6). The STL is at https://cad.onshape.com/documen...

Re: Perimeter Paths

I'm not able to find it right now, but I could swear at some point I saw a Stratasys patent for that exact idea. I wonder how old it is? EDIT: Found it! https://www.google.com/patents/US8349239 Patent is from 2009, so likely can't legally be done by anyone but Stratasys Wow, just wow. That's incred...

Perimeter Paths

These cylinder shapes have proved difficult for me to print on a Taz 6 with nGen Blue. It doesn't matter if I randomize the start points, so I lined them up here. 2016-06-15 at 9.13 AM.png I've tried an exhaustive combination of temperatures, retraction, calibration, extrusion multipliers, coast, ne...

Perimeter: 2x Thickness?

Usually I print 2 or 3 perimeters. These are printed at the same extrusion width as "normal." Is there a setting to adjust the perimeter width so I can print 2x thickness and halve the number of perimeters?

Live Update of Processes

I understand that the user has control over some aspects of the current print using the Machine Control Panel: override movement/extrusion, adjust extruder/bed temp. Is there, or are there plans to add a feature where the user could adjust other process options? For example, I would love to be able ...

Small Cylindrical Part Errors

I'm getting strange results with small cylindrical parts. I've posted details to the Lulzbot Taz forums which can be read here: https://forum.lulzbot.com/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=2949 "I'm testing the limitations of small part printing and have a weird issue. My extruder begins to drag through ...
