look at the g-code generated in cure, check in startup section if you have acceleration settings ... search for M201 and M204 and M205 ..
then look for same codes in g-code generated by the s3d, then look at the process settings in s3d, advanced has to be on, scripts tab, starting script, see if you have any of those codes there..
basically the "lines" you see there are Z axis missalignments and the only way I think you can get those different on the same printer is if you are having too high accel/jerk settings so that those get pronounced ... so you probbly have cure lower the accel/jerk settings at the beginning of your g-code...
look in cura "speed" section, "enable acceleration control" - is this on? also "enable jerk control"? if it is, find the "smallest" numbers and use them in s3d (you have to generate a startup script for s3d manually). unfortunately s3d don't support controlling of acceleration for different segments of the print like cura
so find slowest jerk and acceleration settings in cura (as they obviously work for you) and generate startup script for s3d to set up those values. you will have to generate code yourself. use 205 for jerk:
http://marlinfw.org/docs/gcode/M205.html and M201 for acceleration
http://marlinfw.org/docs/gcode/M201.html
for e.g. if you find that smallest accel value in acceleration is 800mm/s2 and smallest jerk is 10mm/s you add th "startup script" in s3d something like:
Code: Select all
M201 X800 Y800 ; I don't think you need to change Z and E
M205 X10 Y10
the print from s3d will be probably bit slower (as with cura you can setup different accel values for different features so for e.g. you can print infill with higher acceleration and invisible wall sections with higher acceleration then visible wall) then from cura but you will achieve same (or better) print quality
gcodestat integrates with Simplify3D and allow you to
Calculate print time accurately (acceleration, max speed, junction deviation all taken into consideration)
