When using the Ellis method. Why do you have to put the pressure advance value in the filament settings tab you showed. can't I just change the k value in the ams instead? I suppose it's good to have under the filament tab for other printers and for that specific filament. But setting it there, Does it override the k value in the ams?
@ButterPockets11 ай бұрын
I actually didn’t test if it overrides what’s in the AMS. Having the k value in your slicer is more in line with how I’ve printed with other printers and makes more sense to me. If you’d rather take that number and use it on the printer with Bambus new thing I would think you could go ahead do that. Just don’t use the pressure advance in Orca.

@oldsalty3d12211 ай бұрын
I think what their intent was for us to be able to calibrate the flow dynamics for individual filaments and set into the AMS so when people do multicolored prints the individual filaments are calibrated. The option to have flow dynamics calibrated before a print is for when you are just using a single color, you can just drop in the filament and then have it do the flow calibration right before the print starts. It could be an oddball filament that you may never use again, so no need to do calibration to save the K value.
@ButterPockets11 ай бұрын
But why would you not want to save the K value? It seems like such a waste to run the calibration before every print. Especially when filaments of the same type and brand basically don’t need separate calibration (which they even confirm in the dynamics page). I can see what you’re saying and maybe that is it, that’s just now how I would have done it. (Maybe it’s a good thing I don’t choose haha)

@@ButterPockets it would be nice to at least have the option to save the value of a calibration that is done just before the print.

For example, it is missing the necessary code to get the Nozzle off the Part and onto the Purge Block to purge the remaining Material still in the Nozzle before pulling it out. If left as is when doing a Color/Material Change it'll basically just squirt a healthy blob right onto the model ruining it which so far I've crudely fixed by having the Change Filament G-Code include a Move command to one of the Build Plate's Corners which isn't an ideal solution either because there the material will pile up quickly if you do a lot of changes within the first few layers. Personally, I'm really hoping *_PrusaSlicer_* would start to pick up some of the features I really just can't live with any more like automatically printing only one Perimeter on Top and Bottom Layers.

I did everything. Installed updates and restarted and calibration. Then ran flow test and now i cannot get a print to lay down a first layer to save my life. Just makes a terrible mess nothing sticks to any plate. I have hours trying to sort it out. Did the hot fix. Nope. The z height and flow are good for the calibration lines. Then It goes to print the model and Z height is clearly to high. The filament stream is above the plate. No pressing into the build plate at all. Filament is not being pushed onto the build surface. Like i say tried everything. Plates, settings nothing is correct. So i have ended up rolling back to 1.05.02 firm and then had to switch back to orca with the old lidar pattern. I have it at least printing parts again. But i cannot get a perfect first layer like i had before. And its definitely more finicky. It does not drop the purge always down the chute. And various other little things. I wish i just had my original machine back. Clearly even with the rollback changes where kept. Hoping soon they have a solid version that fixes everything back up so i can get back to the solid dependable machine i had.

i think flow tests are obsolete. i do vfa tests instead, find best speeds for each temp (test full temp range of your filament in 5° steps) then check your sliced model, pick the slowest wall area and set it as max, set temp according the values found out in tests. perfect print each time, no glossy and matte areas, no VFA. vfa depends on heat and vibrations/speed. flow calibration is invalid if you don't print at same speed+temp when you did the flow test. all you really need to calibrate are outer walls, those values also apply to top layers. rest doesnt matter.

Tuning extrusion multiplier (what I’ve been referring by to as flow) is not obsolete. The slicer is calculating the feed rate for a given speed and provided you’re under your max flow then it should be providing the correct feed rate for that speed. This is why I suggest tuning PA first because one you are under your max flow rate, and the pressure is being equalized, for an aesthetics first approach (which is what I try to teach, learned from Ellis) to achieve a good top surface the extrusion multiplier can be tuned to achieve a balance between gapping and overlapping. Once pressure advance is tuned that speed dependent flow is achieve and extrusion multiplier is the final knob, per se, to fine tune it. Setting your slowest wall speed to max is actually a great way to remove inconsistencies from the outer wall of print and ensure things get cooled correctly, minimum layer time settings would achieve the same thing. Your outer wall and top surface speed are independent as well, you can set them differently in the slicer. I personally think VFA tests aren’t exactly necessary. I talked about this in a recent video. If you are printing above your resonance frequency (and below the 2nd harmonic) you should be good to print at that speed. The default speeds on a BL printer are tuned quite well and input shaper works to keep accels under control to minimize vibrations. Let me know your thoughts, I’m open to discussing all of this and running tests and making videos on all of it if need be!

Wow... How can you be so excited about object exclusion? I've had that for ages, first via Octoprint, but then just in Klipper (via Mainsail).

@@ButterPockets I'm just stunned that Bambu Lab didn't already have this before and that nobody in any of the reviews I've seen on them had not raised that as a deal-breaker or at least a major shortcoming. As said, I can barely remember a time when I did not have object exclusion. In fact, I only transitioned from Octoprint to Klipper when they added this to Klipper as to me that was THE only edge Octoprint still had over Klipper at the time.

I really liked Orca. I gave up and went back to cura because of simplicity. I wanted to really dial things in, but lost so much fine detail. Then I just wanted to slow down print speed, but was more complex than I wanted. I am sure I'd revisit if/when there is more tutorials or if I can get more help, but for now it isn't for me.
@wrxsubaru0211 ай бұрын
How is Cura simple? You have to scroll for ever or search for all your settings you want to change every time you do something different. It is the exact opposite of simple, and it is one of the main reasons people move on to PrusaSlicer/SuperSlicer/BambuStudio/OrcaSlicer etc. Once you learn a new slicer more, you will start to realize how stupid Cura's UI really is.

I wouldn't say Orca is dead. The calibration on BS is BS. It fails to run almost every time on my P1S. It did run successfully one time, but most of the time it either sits there and does nothing or crashes after one or two lines. The printer otherwise prints fine.

Orca is not dead. Stupid statement. It is more and more recommended over Bambu Studio. Orca is always one step ahead. Bambu would stop publishing the source code to change that.

@@dougshellusn 🤷🏻♂️ I gave clear zoom ins that demonstrate exactly what the print looked like. The point of that segment isn’t to show a print that is imperfection free or to obscure anything. The point is to show you how the tests work so you can run them yourself. There was a clear difference between the two test prints that is without a doubt coming from the tuning, regardless of material. I encourage you to run the tests on your own and come to your own conclusions for your filament and printer. For what it’s worth I needed to tune that material and this video served as a good way to get it done.

@@ButterPockets so we go from dismissive to the "they go low we go high" approach. I'll say it again, as a best practice, the entire 3d print content creation community should refrain from using these types of filaments for showing A/B testing.
